An 18-year-old man and 17-year-old boy were arrested with the SUV before authorities found the five-year-old and one-year-old around 5 am inside a second vehicle that had been reported stolen in Kearney.
About half an hour later, the infant was found on the front porch of a farmhouse in Hall County. All three children had suspected hypothermia and frostbite.
