No vehicle description released? Somebody may have seen it between when she was taken and when he was stopped.

UPDATED: Mother, father of missing girl asking anyone with information to contact sheriff

"I just want my baby back in my arms," said the Overland Park woman.

James Horton, the father, said his daughter came home from her first day of school in a great mood Monday and then headed to a park a half-block from her home in the afternoon with her sisters, where they were joined by friends.

This is the same part of the state that Rowan Ford was murdered in...about an hour away. Praying this is not deja vu.

Why doesn't he work for him anymore? Was this done in revenge for something?

CONFIRMED: Adrianna's grandmother, Velma, and Sheriff Shaw say the suspect in custody previously worked with Adrianna's father, James

 

[nursebeeme]

Investigators confirm the girl's father worked with the suspect. Law officers say they are familiar with the suspect, and that he lived in Golden City at one point in the past. His current residence was unclear. Investigators would not say if the suspect is cooperating with questioning.

Sheriff Shaw tells KOLR10 News the the Horton family lives "less than walking distance" from the park. Investigators say they searched Hazel Park twice and feel they have covered it thoroughly.

The controlled search began about 10:30 Tuesday morning with volunteer teams of first responders, citizens and law officers.

It is focused on Kile Creek, (Muddy Creek, ) also known as the North Fork of Spring River in Barton County.

Today, searchers will move, side by side, down the banks of the creek looking for signs of Adrianna.

As of noon, search organizers say they have 75 volunteers and law officers on foot, 9 on horseback, and another 250 people signed up to help as needed. A number of searchers are also on ATV's and the Highway Patrol is using its helicopter to search from the air. 15 agencies are involved in the search.

Residents in Golden City are being asked if they see anything at all that looks out of place, call Barton County authorities or 911.

Grr how are people meant to know if they saw the vehicle or not without a description!

 

[ArianeEmory]

I'm pretty much afraid of what the lack of info means.

One place says the suspect worked for the father and yet another says he worked with the father.

MOO

Maybe I'm blind, but I see no park anywhere near Golden and High. In fact, I don't see anything that looks remotely like a park from an aeriel view south of Main St. It all looks like rural residences to me.

Is it just me, or does it seem like this summer has been unusually brutal? So many children have been taken.
