Edmonton Police Service have given an update on the Amber Alert that was sent out last week.

According to EPS, two male suspects have been taken into custody in connection to the abduction of a 40-year-old blind woman.

The victim was inside of the vehicle unharmed, and police believed that the two had fled the scene on foot.

Although the suspects have not been named, additional details including their identities will be made publicly available on Friday once their charges have been formally sworn in.
