“We’re searching the surrounding areas. We’re searching ponds. We’re searching trash cans. We’re searching everything,” Sheriff’s Office spokesman Officer Christian Hancock said at a 6:50 p.m. media briefing. “We’re looking for these children, and we aim to find them.”

“If they are alone, they are in danger," Hancock said. “We don’t know if they’re alone or they’re with somebody. That part of the investigation, obviously, is still ongoing. Our major focus right now is finding those two children.”

“The police are going to stay out here. They’re going to be out here all night. When the sun comes up, they’re going to be here. They’re going to have a fresh bodies here to search again,” Jefferson said. “It’s not uncommon for them to have officers research an area that was searched the night before because they are dealing with darkness and maybe a spot or pocket that officers may have missed. But they just wanna make sure that they go through with a fine-tooth comb.”

....

Additionally, police also asked people living near West Beaver Street at Port-Au-Prince Drive to check around their properties, including exterior structures and under mobile homes.

As of Sunday evening, Lloyd said, the children’s parents, Brian Williams and Bianca Jackson, were home and were not doing well.

“It’s devastating,” she said.
