Lost Child In Smoky Mountains Sparks Massive Search
A child wanders from parents into the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee and is not found after a large, multi-agency search. Up to 1,500 searchers mobilize on weekends, with units from National Guardsmen to Coast Guard aiding in the rugged terrain. Volunteers, local groups, and donors provide food and support as hope and heartbreak endure.
