Two young girls were found in a Douglas backyard after wandering a half-mile from their daycare Tuesday afternoon, the Worcester Telegram and Gazette reports.

The unidentified girls, ages 3 and 4, apparently opened a gate at the Within Community Center day care and wandered off.

A short time later, the girls were found a half-mile away by a resident in a neighbor's backyard, the paper reports. The man tells the paper he saw the two girls knocking on his neighbor's backdoor. He told the Telegram that he called them over, his wife got them something to drink, and he called 911.

Both girls were not hurt, the paper reports.

According to the paper, the incident has been reported to the Department of Children and Families.

Within Community Center's director, Sandra Phillips had no comment for the paper.
