The Barron County Sheriff’s Office continues to work with our local, state and federal law enforcement partners in the search for missing and endangered 13 year old Jayme Closs. We ask the public’s help in continuing to provide tips at

Today, with assistance from community volunteers, we are conducting a routine search for articles of evidentiary value that may be related to Jayme’s disappearance. We thank the volunteers for their efforts, as the search efforts are still underway. As of the time of this release, nothing of evidentiary value has been recovered. We will update the public as appropriate.
