Mesquite police officers located two children and their father from an Amber Alert issued very briefly Saturday morning.

A short time after police said they issued the alert, Stewart and the children were located at an Irving gas station.

The children were found safe and police said they were reunited with their mother.

Stewart was arrested and will be charged with endangering a child.
