CPD Blue Locates 2 Girl Runaways

  • Update (via KHQrightnow Twitter): KHQ has learned that a man has been arrested in the Coeur d'Alene endangered runaways case. KHQ Reporter Mike Perry is in Coeur d'Alene gathering more information on the suspect.

The two female runaways have been located in an apartment at 3825 N. Ramsey Road. Charity Jordan and Tina Jewell are fine, and currently being detained by police until they are released to their parents. The Police Department was notified of their whereabouts by a citizen. Officers are still on scene, and determining if an adult is responsible for harboring them. I have no further information if that occurred at this time.

Question: Do you think police officers get frustrated when they're looking for runaways? After all, it seems that the runaways don't want to be at home. And will take off again. It almost seems like a catch-and-release situation.
