Missing Waukegan Children Found Safe

Two missing Waukegan siblings have been found safe after police say they were abducted by their father Thursday morning.

The 3-year-old boy and his 4-year-old sister were dropped off by their aunt in Zion and are currently in DCFS custody, according to the Zion Police Department.

Police say the children's father, Dejavante Finley, is still on the loose and should be considered armed and dangerous.

Finley is described as a black male, 5-feet, 5 inches tall and weighing around 130 pounds. He was wearing a grey t-shirt and light blue jeans and blue and black tennis shoes.

He was last seen driving a 2006 dark blue Chevy Malibu with temporary Wisconsin license plates K7561C. The children were taken from a Lake County Public Defender’s office at 15 South County Street at 9:20 a.m.
