Seven-year old Chloe, six-year-old Rachel, and three-year old Victor Lance who were considered “missing and endangered” were found safe today in Botetourt County, VA.
It was just last week that a judge gave primary custody of the children to their father, Jeff Lance. Angela Lance had taken the children for the weekend and was supposed to bring them back on Monday.
Jeff Lance tells us all three children and their mother were found at a shelter in Botetourt County. He was reunited with his children late this afternoon at a different location.
Roanoke Police say Angela Lance contacted them voluntarily and returned the children unharmed. Police have not placed any charges again Angela Lance.

United States Ambassador to Mexico Tony Garza promised to maintain pressure on the Mexican government until it finds 22 Americans who are missing in the border city of Nuevo Laredo.
In a letter sent to Sen. John Cornyn on Wednesday, Garza said that relieving the suffering of the victims and their families, most of whom live in Laredo, Texas, is a priority for the U.S. mission here.
“John, I want to assure you that my personal attention and our U.S. mission’s efforts will not cease until Mexican officials thoroughly and openly investigate any cases involving missing American citizens,” Garza wrote in the letter to the Texas senator.
Last week, Cornyn, a Republican who chairs the Immigration, Border Security and Citizenship subcommittee, wrote to Garza expressing concern about the situation on the United States’ southeast border.
Nuevo Laredo, a city of 330,000 across the river from Laredo Texas, has been caught up in a violent turf war between rival drug gangs.
