Three of four Iowa teenage runaways, who caught the eye of the national media when they went missing last month, pleaded guilty Thursday in nearby Woodford County, Illinois where they were caught. The four, two boys and two girls were nicknamed the X Box Romance Runaways because they met through X Box. They had been charged in Eureka after police found them hiding out in a vacant home in Eureka, a few days after they went missing and their case caught the attention of many national news outlets. Prosecutors say all four of the teens were put on probation and ordered to pay the owner of the vacant home, where they were discovered, restitution.
