<\/a>LINCOLN, Neb. \u2014<\/p>\nA missing Lincoln juvenile was found safe in Texas on Thursday.<\/p>\n
According to a news release from the U.S. Marshals Service, the Western District of Arkansas Task Force arrested a woman at a park in Texarkana, Texas, who had the boy with her. <\/p>\n
The news release said that on June 26, a missing person’s report was filed for a 12-year-old boy who had gone to a friend’s house on June 25 and did not come home. <\/p>\n
Lincoln police started their investigation and found out the boy had been seen near the People’s City Mission with a friend and a woman. Investigators later found out that the woman, identified as Tracy Riley, 49, purchased three bus tickets to Texarkana, Arkansas. <\/p>\n
On Monday, members of the Nebraska Metro Fugitive Task Force were asked to assist in finding Riley. Then the Arkansas task force and Texarkana police were asked to help.<\/p>\n
Marshals located both the boy and Riley in a Texas park. <\/p>\n
Riley was arrested for violation of custody and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. She is awaiting extradition to Nebraska.<\/p>\n
The boy “appeared in good health” and is now in protective custody.<\/p>\n
