How far is the school from highway 26?

"Not contained to just around the school"

Not sure what the question was - maybe search area?

 

[MsFacetious]

Trucker possibly saw Kyron on Hwy 26 - left a tip, didn't get a call back until this morning.

Okay...if this was me, I would have called 911... and then not let the child out of my sight if I truly thought it was him. If this child was walking in the middle of the night it doesn't matter WHO it was, that is worthy of a 911 call and not leaving him there alone. If they were in a vehicle, he could get a plate number and possibly follow them. Plus, most truckers have radio contact with officers.

That just seems weird to me. :waitasec:

Now that it is 9am when he was last seen that leaves a very tiny window of opportunity for someone to snatch him. (8:45 - 9:00)

 

[Jules71]

Missing endangered = missing more than 24 hours, weather conditions, terrain, etc.

 

[CajunGirl]

poor little guy... hes absolutely precious ... i hope they find him soon

 

[Dee10]

If the last siting was at 9 am, most kids would be in their classrooms and I assume less activity in the hallway etc. Strange.

 

[Jules71]

Medical condition/behavior - not able to talk about that.

Unable to talk about possibility of running away.

 

[Jules71]

Great deal of good info that will help move this investigation forward.

Good point, and I'll say again what I said just a bit ago. SAR and LE teams have OFTEN found missing adults and children FAR outside the planned search radius. In Fight-or-Flight mode, people panic and adrenaline kicks in, and they walk or run far faster and for far longer than is normally possible.

 

[NightFire]

Medical condition/behavior - not able to talk about that.

Unable to talk about possibility of running away.

I heard that too, seems odd to me. Usually when a kid goes missing the first thing you hear is of medical conditions or a history of running away :waitasec:

I interpreted it as he saw him before he was reported missing, and then realized the situation later, could be wrong though. However, yes, a 7 year old walking alone deserves some attention, missing or not.

Look at the reader comment posted at 11:26am today by D--

Hmmm, I don't see anything at 11:26 today...was it removed?

I found the comment at June 07, 2010, 11:08AM concerning. Still hoping he's just lost. It seems there may be lots of area that's yet to be searched as of this time.

According to news reports: "Authorities said searchers on Sunday were not able to complete the 2-mile area from Skyline to Kyron’s home and hope to do that today."
