The Amber Alert for two missing Saskatchewan children has been cancelled after authorities in South Dakota announced the arrest of Benjamin Martin Moore on Wednesday.
The suspects in the Amber Alert have been captured and the kids have been safely recovered!

RCMP issued a release several hours later confirming that Moore, the children and their mother were located and are in the custody of officials in South Dakota.
Early this morning, Saskatchewan RCMP was advised by our policing partners in the United States that the four individuals who were the subject of Amber Alerts in Saskatchewan and South Dakota were located and were with officials in South Dakota.
More information to come.

During a news conference on Tuesday, the RCMP disclosed Moore has a history of sexual offences against children and was previously convicted of sexual interference with a minor.
He now faces a charge of failing to report information within seven days of changing his address, which is required for convicted sex offenders.
Mounties also said Moore was being investigated by social services when he left with the children and their mother, which police confirmed was his common-law partner.
On Aug. 5, officers went to their home in Eastend, southwest of Regina, to question Moore but found it abandoned.
This led the ministry to seek an apprehension order for the children, which then resulted in the RCMP issuing the Amber Alert on Monday evening.
