Man who stole a car with children inside still on the loose

NEW YORK (AP) - Police are still searching for the man who stole a car with three children inside on a Brooklyn street and drove off with them.

The children were found within hours after they disappeared Friday afternoon in an SUV left running while their parents stopped at a store in the Canarsie neighborhood.

Authorities say the two girls and a boy, ages 1, 2 and 8, were taken to a hospital as a precaution and reunited with their parents. They were unharmed.

Police did not release any names, or other details about the incident.
