Police in Georgia have arrested a babysitter accused of kidnapping two young sisters. The girls, Zola Cooper, 4, and Norah Cooper, 11 months, were allegedly abducted by Lakesha Brown.

The girls, who were once considered to "be in extreme danger" were safely recovered by officers, the City of Atlanta Police Department confirmed on Monday.

Brown reportedly gained the trust of the girls' mother and agreed to babysit them while mom went out to dinner Saturday night. When she returned from dinner, she could not make contact with Brown and called police minutes later.

The girls' mother reported them missing around 10:30 p.m. on Saturday. She left her children in Brown's care at 6 p.m. earlier that evening, police said.

By Monday afternoon, police announced they were able to locate the girls using technology that pointed them to the Sylvan road area. Once they arrived, officers heard crying, found them, and brought them to safety.

Atlanta police said Brown had previously been accused in a similar kidnapping case in Alabama.

Investigators in Alabama said in August 2021, Brown was arrested for kidnapping infant Kamarion Taylor, who was just four days old at the time.

Brown allegedly gained the trust of Taylor's mother and grandmother and kidnapped the infant while his mother was taking a nap.

"When Kamarion’s mother awoke, the baby was nowhere to be found. Lakesha was also gone. The mother immediately contacted Lakesha and asked where Kamarion was. Lakesha told her that Kamarion was there in his playpen where she laid him before she left," the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office said.

Investigators safely recovered Kamarion and Brown was booked into jail.
