Search For Missing Lewis County Toddler Continues

{West Virginia}...Three year old Aliayah Lunsford was last seen Saturday morning by her mother. Since then, members of the community have joined law enforcement officials to search for Lunsford who may have wandered off from her home. FBI officials say there's no reason to believe an actual crime has been committed. Nothing was found in a pond that was drained Thursday right down the road from the Lunsford home in Bendale in Lewis County. The FBI indicates it still has no evidence of foul play and investigators remain optimistic that they can recover the young girl alive and return her to her family. Jeff Killeen, a special agent with the FBI's Pittsburgh Division, says, though little progress has been made to find Lunsford, he is remaining optimistic about locating the child alive.
