BREMERTON, Wash. (AP) – Child welfare workers have removed two other children from the Washington home where a 6-year-old disappeared.

Kitsap County sheriff’s Deputy Scott Wilson says Washington Child Protective Services took an 8-year-old boy and 12-year-old girl from the east Bremerton home Monday, as the search continues for the younger girl, Jenise (juh-NEES’) Paulette Wright.

Wilson says the two were the only other children at the residence. A previous report of six children there was incorrect.

Wilson says two parents also live in the home in a blended family.

Jenise was last seen Saturday night, but she wasn’t reported missing until Sunday night.
