Authorities arrested a father in California over the weekend after two of his children were found dead in his eastern Nebraska home, police said on Sunday.

Law enforcement in Bellevue, south of Omaha, said 5-year-old Emily Price and 3-year-old Theodore Price were found dead Sunday morning in 34-year-old Adam Price’s home. The father was not at the scene but was later arrested thousands of miles away in California.
