Krista Dittmeyer’s vehicle was found Saturday morning in the parking lot of the Cranmore Mountain Ski Resort in North Conway, NH. Her 14 month old infant was found in the back seat unharmed as the car was idling and the hazard lights flashing. A rather odd circumstance if some one wanted to abandon a car. Why would the individual have left the car in a manner that would have brought attention to it. Police believe that Krista Dittmeyer was abducted and may be in danger; however, who ever did this wanted the car and the baby to be located.

As reported at Fox News, the planned police press conference this afternoon has been canceled.Not always the best news when investigators are searching a specific area and confirmed that blood was found in the vehicle. However, Assistant Attorney General Jane Young would not comment on whether this was a homicide investigation or not.

Investigators canceled a Wednesday afternoon press conference on Dittmeyer and referred all inquiries to the Attorney General’s Office. Assistant Attorney General Jane Young, one of the office’s homicide prosecutors, is in charge of the investigation.

Young told FoxNews.com Wednesday she had “no comment” on whether the case was now a homicide investigation or if Dittmeyer’s body had been found.

UPDATE I: It is also being reported that police are investigating a second vehicle found in Conway, NH. Conway police executed two search warrants, one warrant is for the Dittmeyer’s car, the other the police  won’t reveal information about. However, police have seized a second vehicle in addition to Dittmeyer’s car, but they would not disclose the name of the person who owns the car.

“We are processing some physical evidence that we seized at the scene and another location in Conway,” Conway Police Department Lt. Chris Perley said. “We don’t have any information that leads us to believe that she is not alive.”
