Volunteers Continue Search for Missing Girl
From Times Wire Reports
Searchers spent a fourth day scouring roads and woods surrounding a missing girl’s home in Homosassa but found nothing that brought them closer to finding the 9-year-old.
Jessica Marie Lunsford was last seen Wednesday night in her bedroom. Her father discovered she was missing the next morning. Police said a door at the home was unlocked.
Despite heavy rain and a tornado watch, nearly 540 volunteers turned out to comb the rural community of 2,300 people, about 60 miles north of Tampa.
