UPDATE: Mother of three abandoned Oregon children found
Police in Oregon say the mother of three children allegedly abandoned
in a shed has been found. They released the following statement on
Friday afternoon: "The mother of the missing children has been
located, and we thank everyone who helped with information. We do not
need any additional tips."
The search began on Thursday when the three children, all aged 3 and
under, were found living among a group of homeless people inside an
abandoned shed on a residential property in Portland.
CNN reports that the children appear to be related, with the youngest
being a baby girl estimated to be 8-15 months old.
Local resident Judy Baxter said she notified a neighbor that there
were homeless people gathered in an empty shed next door to his home
but that she had no idea there were children among them.
"Little did I know they had three babies in the backyard," Baxter told
the Oregonian. "It was real sad when we saw the kids come out.''
