Search For Missing Florida Panhandle Baby

A 7-month-old infant has gone missing from
her home in Chipley, a small town on the Florida Panhandle.
The Washington County Sheriff's Office said Monday that Shannon
Dedrick disappeared sometime between 3 a.m. and 11 a.m. on
Saturday.
Since then, about 75 search and rescue workers from three
counties have exhaustively scoured the surrounding area. They were
joined by K-9 teams and volunteers from local fire departments in a
14-hour search beginning late Saturday morning, and continued
nonstop since 7 a.m. on Sunday.
The arm-to-arm search has covered a 1/2-mile radius of Shannon's
home, and deputies are expanding the area each hour.
The sheriff's office was asking the public to continue calling
in tips.
Shannon was described as 2-feet tall and 11 pounds, with brown
hair and blue eyes.
