Authorities confirmed that 6-year-old Sebastian Rodriguez and 2-year-old Theodore Zurawic, who were suspected to be in danger after disappearing in Midland, have been found safe in California, as reported by Michigan State Police.

Thank you to all those who helped locate them, called in tips, and offered support. https://t.co/v0jURRPg0X
Before the boys were located, Michigan authorities had been searching intensively for the children in collaboration with the public following a missing endangered advisory. The MSP believed they were with their parents, Noel Schmidt and Nathan Rodriguez, and were potentially headed westward. According to an initial report by Audacy, their last confirmed location was in the Midland area where they were last seen.
The Michigan State Police expressed gratitude and relief after recovering the young brothers, a sentiment shared by everyone who followed their troubling disappearance and the efforts to bring them home safely.
