Breaking News: Search for Haleigh Ongoing

Investigators in the Haleigh Cummings case have received a tip from inside the jail, and are searching the area near where Ronald Cummings lived when Haleigh disappeared at this moment. They’ve also set up a mobile command center, so it looks like they got a big tip.

News4Jax.com is reporting the following (see their video here):

Channel 4’s Tarik Minor said the search of an area less than 5 miles south of where Haleigh disappeared in February 2008 was prompted by a “credible tip.”

Minor called the search effort “massive,” and included deputies from Putnam, Clay and Marion counties, as well as the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. He said cadaver dogs were also brought to the scene.

In the FirstCoastNews article, they write something I have never seen before: “After extensive interviews with many people involved in Haleigh’s life, detectives have said Croslin knows more than she’s saying, but is not a suspect. Has anyone seen that before? Is this a new change in status due to information?

I will post more information as it becomes available. If you have breaking news, please email me!

Thanks, Karon, for the breaking news tip!
