EUREKA -- Four Iowa teens, nationally known as the "Xbox Romance Runaways" were found in Eureka on Tuesday. The Benton County, Iowa Sheriff said the teens, ages 13-16, met while playing Xbox and had been missing since Saturday.
Police said the two boys and two girls were found in a vacant house in the 500 block of Court Street when its owner came to check on the home.
The teens appeared in Woodford County court Wednesday on charges of trespassing and criminal damage. The two boys were also charged with possession of a stolen vehicle.
The girls have been released to their parents and the boys are being held in the McLean County Juvenile Detention Center.
All four will appear in court again next month.
