Riviera Beach children found safe after Amber Alert

According to police, Akachi Turner, 11, and Aizon Turner, 3, were found safely in Georgia. Audrey Turner, 43, was taken into custody.

The news comes after an Amber Alert was issued Monday for the two children out of Riviera Beach. According to police, the kids went missing after they left their foster home in Riviera Beach.

According to Riviera Beach police, the suspect was arrested at a motel in McDonough, Georgia, with the boys, who were found safe.

It was a multi-agency effort with multiple sheriffs offices from Florida and Georgia assisting in the investigation. Additionally, two U.S. Marshals Office task forces were involved — one from Florida and one from Georgia.

Thousands of calls from across the southeast, some from as far as Tennessee, came in with tips as the investigation progressed. At this time it's unclear if one of those calls led to the arrest and location of the boys.
