Tucson police search for missing 6-year-old girl.
The overnight disappearance of a 6-year-old Arizona girl triggered a massive search Saturday by scores of police, FBI agents and a large contingent of deputy U.S. Marshals as officials investigated the possibility that she might have been kidnapped or just wandered off.
“Because of the possibly existing that this child could have been abducted we’re treating it as if it’s that significant,” Hawke said Saturday afternoon. “We don’t want to be caught behind the ball by not exploring that possibility. So because of that we literally, all hands on deck, every available resource has been called.”
Hawke says at least 75 law enforcement officers were involved, possibly as many as 100, as more resources continue to arrive to help in the search and investigate the disappearance.
An Amber Alert has been issued, Tucson Police Sgt. Maria Hawke said. Anyone with information is encouraged to call 911 immediately.
UPDATE I: According to AZ Sex Offender Registry there are 17 registered sex offenders within 3 miles of the missing girls home.
UPDATE II: Area map
UPDATE III: Isabel’s uncle and family spokesperson Justin Mastromarino said Isabel’s bedroom window was open. He also said her family is a loving one.
