The three children who reportedly ran away from an east Vancouver apartment complex Saturday afternoon have been found safe, police said.

The children “safely returned to their respective homes during the early morning hours” on Sunday, the Vancouver Police Department said in a news release. Police thanked the public and media for their assistance.

The three children — Brent Luyster, 11; Laura Hamilton, 12; and Molly Luyster, 13 — apparently had planned to run away for as much as two weeks before leaving home Saturday, police said. Police thought they may have been carrying extra clothes, food, and possibly a blue rolled-up sleeping bag with them.

Police said all three live in the same apartment complex near the intersection of East Mill Plain Boulevard and Southeast 164th Avenue.

It was believed they left the complex at the same time and may have been headed for east Vancouver, by the waterfront and downtown Portland, police said. Police said Saturday that they thought the three had enough money to take public transportation around Vancouver and Portland.
