Some great news Wednesday morning as Okotoks RCMP have found a pair of missing children they were looking for.

Dakota & Alissa Banks were reported missing Tuesday afternoon from their rural home just outside of Okotoks.

Okotoks Mounties say the pair were found late last night about 5.6 KM from their home safe and sound.

The pair have been returned home and RCMP thank the public for their help in looking for the two.
