Pinal County authorities have issued an Amber Alert after two young children were taken from Arizona Department of Child Safety custody by their parents.
They say the two boys — ages 2 and 4 months — were taken around 7:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Arizona Department of Public Safety officials say 34-year-old Jerry Jay Kirkley and 34-year-old Melissa Joy Gladden may be headed to Mississippi or Louisiana with the children.
The couple reportedly is traveling in a pickup truck with a Louisiana license plate.
