Abducted Alberta children possibly in B.C.: RCMP

Two Alberta children believed to have been abducted may be in British Columbia, RCMP said on Friday. The investigation centers on Karl and Lanakai Morrison, who were last seen July 7 in Beaverlodge, Alberta.

RCMP confirmed an Amber Alert had been issued the following day, July 8, but stated the alert was later rescinded. Authorities emphasized that the investigation remains active and that tips from the public are welcome as officers pursue potential leads across provincial lines.

Details released by police indicate the children were last seen together and described as a boy and a girl. No information has been provided about a suspected abductor or a vehicle, and authorities have not disclosed whether there were any immediate safety concerns for the children’s well-being at the time of their disappearance.

Officials said the probe has since extended beyond Alberta, with investigators evaluating possible sightings or activity in neighboring provinces, including British Columbia. The RCMP spokesperson declined to provide further specifics while noting the case remains a priority for investigators.

Family members have been contacted, and authorities are urging anyone who may have information to come forward. Tips can be reported to local RCMP detachments or through national tip lines as the investigation progresses.

The case highlights the ongoing efforts by law enforcement to locate missing children and to corroborate information that could indicate the children’s location or the whereabouts of those who may have abducted them. Police have not identified any verified leads that confirm the children’s safety or their location, and they cautioned the public against speculation.

No additional updates were provided regarding potential court proceedings or warrants connected to the disappearance. The RCMP reiterated its commitment to keeping the public informed as new information becomes available.
