3 Missing Brothers Found Safe

Three young boys who went missing Friday morning while walking to their West Philly school have been found safe.

Nine-year-old Zair Bell, and his brothers, Yashua, 7, and Naziyr, 6, were found at their grandmother's home Saturday in good condition.

The boys went missing Friday around 8:15 a.m. as they were heading to the James Rhoads Elementary School at 49th and Parrish streets.

When the dad, who is in an ongoing custody dispute with his ex-wife, went to the school around 4 p.m. to pick the boys up, school officials said the three brothers never arrived that morning, authorities said.

While police revealed the boys were found safe Saturday, they have not yet revealed how they initially went missing.
