Riverton City officials announced that Josh and Thamy Holt are flying home Monday evening where they’ll be greeted by well-wishers at the airport and in their neighborhood, a celebratory return after they were detained for nearly two years in a Venezuelan prison on charges the U.S. government believes were bogus.

The couple, along with their daughter Marian, will arrive on Delta flight 939, expected to arrive at 7:19 p.m., with members of the community encouraged to arrive at 6:45 p.m.

Then, a group will gather at Riverton’s Old Dome Meeting Hall at 1452 W. 12600 South at 8:30 p.
