The entrance to the search area Wednesday is cordoned off with police tape. A mobile command vehicle for the warden service and other vehicles were parked on Nike Road. One Oakland police officer on the scene said he could not comment about the search.
The area is the planned location for Ridgewoods Estates. It was cleared within the last few years to make way for the development.
Paul Stevens, who lives in the area, said game wardens arrived at about 6:30 a.m.
“I’ve been hunting and snowshoeing out there before,” he said. “It’s all just trees, there’s not much out there until Zachary Drive. They must figure something is out there. I just hope they find her.”
