(CNN) A Milwaukee woman and her two daughters who went missing earlier this month were found dead in a garage Sunday, authorities said.

An Amber Alert was issued Thursday for Amarah Banks, 26, and her daughters Zaniya Ivery, 5, and Camaria Banks, 4, after Banks was reported missing by her family on February 9.

The three were found dead Sunday. Autopsies were scheduled for Monday, the Milwaukee Medical Examiner said on Twitter

Arzel Ivery, Banks' boyfriend, gave police investigators information that led them to the Milwaukee garage where Banks and her daughters were found, Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales said in a news conference.

Ivery, 25, is being held in Memphis, Tennessee, on a charge of fugitive from justice without a warrant, according to Shelby County Jail records. He has not been charged in connection with the deaths, Morales said.
