Amber alert lifted after missing children found unharmed

According to the OSBI and State Police, an Amber Alert was lifted after two children were found unharmed.

The children, Aiyana, 8, and Axton, 1, were found and are safe after an Amber Alert was issued late Thursday night. During the search, troopers said the children may have been with their father, Devyn Burcher, 27, who was recently released from prison wearing an ankle monitor. OHP said he turned off his ankle monitor before the children disappeared.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said one person was in custody but did not say who. The OSBI confirmed that the FBI is also involved in the investigation because of Burcher’s tribal affiliation.

Police have not reported where the children were found.
