COLUMBIA, S.C. — Two children reported missing in Lexington County have been found and are safe, the sheriff's department said in a statement on Saturday.
On Wednesday, the Lexington County Sheriff's Department began searching for 15-year-old Neville Ritchey and 11-year-old Bre Ritchey. The department said the foster father of the two last saw them near their home.
The sheriff's department said at the time that they were likely traveling together. And while the department said it had no reason to believe the two were in danger, investigators wanted to bring them home.
The department confirmed around 7:30 a.m. Saturday that the two had been found safe and unharmed but declined to provide additional information to protect the family's privacy.
