Siblings of missing Native girl removed from home


Child protection workers in Saskatchewan, Canada, have removed the siblings of a missing five-year-old Native girl from the family home.

Police from Regina provided backup as the children were taken from the home where Tamra Keepness was last seen on July 5. No reason was given for the removal of the five kids.

The family has been the focus of the investigation into Tamra's disappearance. On Monday, Tamra's stepfather was charged with an assault that allegedly occurred a few hours after she went missing.
