A missing woman and her seven-year-old son have been found safe after being missing for two weeks.

Dawn Walker and her son Vincent Jansen were last seen in Saskatoon in late July. According to the Saskatoon Police Service, the pair were found in Oregon City, Oregon and “both are reported to be safe and well.”

According to the police, the pair “illegally entered the United States,” and were tracked down with help from U.S. agencies.

“At this time, U.S. authorities are considering the implications and any potential action as a result of an illegal entry into the U.S.,” Saskatoon Police said in a statement.

“Pending any action by U.S. authorities Dawn Walker will be returned to Saskatoon to meet with investigators. U.S. agency representatives in consultation with the SPS are currently working out the details of returning Vincent Jansen to a legal guardian.”
