Kokomo police seek help after court issues order for missing children

KOKOMO, Ind. (WISH) – Kokomo Police Department on Thursday night asked for help to locate a missing Kokomo father and his two sons. 

Michael D. Lovely, 37, and the boys Noah, 4, and Conner, 1, were not returned to the custody of their mother on Wednesday as planned, a news release from police Capt. Tonda Cockrell said.
