Two boys, ages 9 and 10 years,  from Elma Primary School who were reported missing Monday afternoon have been found.

After the boys were missing for over two hours they were found about three miles away at Seasonal Nursery on Bullis Road in Elma. 

According to a Seasonal Nursery employee the two boys were walking along train tracks behind the Nursery when employees found them and called the police. 

The two were reported missing after failing to return from recess. 

Douglas Scofield, Superintendent of Iroquois Schools, said the incident is going to lead to an investigation by the district to see what went wrong, and how to fix the problem. 

The boys were not harmed in the incident and no foul play is suspected.
