Children abducted from school bus
On the morning of August 18, two women interfered with a Floyd County School bus on its morning route. One women falsely claimed a family emergency and removed three children. The children are the subject of a custody dispute in the Floyd County Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court.
The women, who reside in South Carolina, were determined to be the mother and grandmother of the children. The Floyd County Sheriff’s Office was able to reliably determine that the women were traveling south and soon crossed into North Carolina. Warrants for Abduction and Conspiracy to Abduct have been issued and served.
The children in question have been located and are safe. This investigation is ongoing.
