Investigators Search for Missing Florida Girl

Haleigh Cummings, a five year old girl from Florida, has been missing since early Tuesday morning.  CNN reports that she was likely abducted from her home.

According to CNN affiliate WJXT-TV, the girlfriend of Cumming’s dad, Misty Croslin, called 911 at 3 a.m. on Tuesday to report the child missing.  She was watching Haleigh and her 4-year-old brother on Monday evening.  

Haleigh went to bed around 8 p.m. and Croslin went to bed a little later, around 10 p.m.  Croslin woke up around 3 a.m. and this is when she realized that Haleigh was missing. 

Croslin also pointed out to the 911 dispatcher that she noticed a brick holding the door open to the family’s double wide trailer.

Putnam County Sherriff’s Office does not believe, at this point, that the child just wandered off.  A nationwide Amber Alert has been issued for the little girl, last seen wearing a pink shirt and underwear.

Investigators encourage anyone with information on the whereabouts of little Haleigh to call the Putnam County Sheriff's Office at 386-329-0800 or the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's Missing Endangered Persons Information Clearinghouse at 888-FL-MISSING.
