CHP reports that both children have been found and the Amber Alert has been deactivated. Below is the original story: The California Highway Patrol issued an Amber Alert across much of Central and Southern California Wednesday as authorities searched for a man suspected of killing a woman in Kings County and abducting their two young daughters.

Two girls who authorities say were abducted by their father after he allegedly killed their mother, were found safe and the suspect taken into custody.

Detectives located the suspect and the children by tracking signals from both his cellphone and his slain girlfriend’s, which had gone missing, Kings County Sheriff David Robinson told reporters at a news conference on Thursday.
