A three-day law enforcement operation in the Long Island and New York City area, dubbed the Long Island Missing Child Rescue Operation, located 34 missing children and teenagers aged 7 to 18, officials said. The operation, which involved more than 100 professionals from nearly 40 agencies, concluded on October 1 and was announced by Gov. Kathy Hochul and other officials on October 2 and 3. Of those recovered, 18 were from Nassau County, 12 from Suffolk County, and four from Queens, according to officials. Some had been missing for a few days, others for up to a decade. Officials said some were runaways, while others were victims of exploitation or trafficking. One 17-year-old was found with a known felon in Manhattan, according to Nassau Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder. Those located were connected with support services.
