Their father and stepmother are jailed in Tacoma and are likely to make their first court appearance Friday on suspicion of child assault, unlawful imprisonment and criminal mistreatment.

Police found the 9-year-old girl and her 10-year-old brother on Thursday after a neighbor reported hearing muffled screams.

They were bound with plastic ties. She was tied to a water heater. He was gagged with masking tape.

Two other children were found in the home not tied up. The 10-month-old girl and 11-year-old also are now in the care of state Child Protective Services.
