Oregon State Police are still investigating a case involving a young child who went missing in Sisters and was later recovered safe.

Last Sunday morning, May 23, about 9:30 a.m., a message went out to the Sisters community from Deschutes County 9-1-1 alerts regarding a three-year-old boy who had been located near the Sisters Creekside Campground at about midnight. The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office was attempting to locate the child’s family.

Later Sunday afternoon another alert went out saying the child’s family had been located. According to Lt. Chad Davis of the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Sisters substation, Sisters deputies assisted Trooper Malloy of the Oregon State Patrol (OSP) who was first on scene. Davis indicated an arrest has been made in the case.

OSP declined to provide any further information, noting that, “This is an open investigation and there is no information available for release.”
