Three women from the US have been found in Cleveland, Ohio, after going missing approximately ten years ago, officials have confirmed.

All three women disappeared separately and were apparently thought to be dead. According to reports, they are now in hospital.

They are named as Amanda Berry – who went missing in 2003 – Gina DeJesus – who disappeared in 2004 – and Michele Knight – who went missing in 2002 – officials have said.

The three individuals were found in a house in the American state.

Three brothers have been arrested following the fact that the three women have been found.

During an emergency phone call, which police have released, Amanda Berry said: “Help me! I'm Amanda Berry... I've been kidnapped and I've been missing for 10 years and I'm here. I'm free now.”

The Mayor of Cleveland, Mayor Frank Jackson, commented on the case saying: “I am thankful that Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight have been found alive.”

Adding: “We have many unanswered questions regarding this case, and the investigation will be ongoing.”

Cleveland is situated in the north of the US state of Ohio. Ohio is located near to Indiana, Kentucky and West Virginia.
