FARMINGTON — Two toddlers who were reported missing Monday from a preschool on Route 4 were found about two hours later at a nearby location, according to Franklin County dispatchers.

Farmington Police and Franklin County Sheriff’s officers found the missing toddlers just before 2 p.m. after they were reported missing from their preschool shortly before noon. Police did not release the name of the preschool, but initial reports were that it is near the Sandy River and that the children hadn’t been seen since 11:30 a.m.

Dispatchers could not confirm where the children were found, but police scanner reports indicated that they were found “next door.” Officers have attempted contact with the parents, dispatchers said.

No other information was immediately available.
