# Three children kept locked inside their home since 2021 have been rescued by Spanish police. Officers said they arrested a 53-year-old German man and a 48-year-old American woman in Oviedo, northeast Spain. The two eight-year-old twins and a ten-year-old have been taken for medical evaluation and are now at a government juvenile centre. A Spanish news outlet says an investigation was launched after a neighbour complained about children who lived in the home not attending school. The parents had been charged with domestic violence, habitual psychological abuse, and child abandonment.
