Laundrie disappears
Tuesday, September 14th was the last time Laundrie’s parents saw him. They say he left home in hiking gear with a backpack. He was headed out to the T. Mabry Carlton Jr. Memorial Reserve near Venice. They reported him missing on September 17th.
“A weekend ground search and aerial search Monday of the 25-thousand-acre preserve has yet to yield any answers, but we must press on,” North Port Police said on Facebook.
Authorities in Florida continue searching for Laundrie. Dogs and searchers have been searching the Carlton Reserve. Police say the area is 75% underwater, which makes it difficult terrain.
