PITTSBURGH (AP) – Pittsburgh police say three children “kidnapped” from a foster home by their mother have been returned to authorities, but the woman remains at-large.
Police say a relative turned over 33-year-old Toy Nixon-McCray’s children to Allegheny County sheriff’s deputies late Monday.
Police say Nixon-McCray went to the foster residence about 2 p.m. Sunday without authorization and left with her three daughters, ages 14 and 5 years old, and their 6-month-old sister.
The foster parents know the suspect’s family and agreed to take in the children so they wouldn’t be separated after they were removed from the suspect’s care because her home was in poor condition.
Investigators say the suspect was in a green sport-utility vehicle that might have been used as a jitney.
Police were continuing to search for her Tuesday.
