HELENA — A Montana Department of Justice official says three children who were reported missing from the Blackfeet Indian Reservation have been found.

Agency spokesman John Barnes says a tip led Flathead tribal police Thursday to 8-year-old Ivan Redhorn III, 4-year-old Cerista Bullbear and 1-year-old Ivanna Redhorn.

Barnes says the children are uninjured and are in the custody of Child and Family Services.

Tribal officials say the three children were taken May 27 by their noncustodial parents.

They said they believed 31-year-old Ivan Redhorn Jr. and Angelina Bullbear were in the Ronan or St. Ignatius areas.

It was not immediately clear where the children were found or whether any arrests have been made.
