Hundreds search for missing student
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University police, aided by hundreds of volunteers from the university and the community, started a mass ground search of the campus for a student who has been missing since Saturday morning.
There has been a correction in the use of Wade Steffy’s ATM card.
This afternoon, police also said earlier information about when Steffey’s bank account was accessed in the hours before he disappeared was incorrect. Police now say a $50 withdrawal from Steffey’s bank account was made at an ATM in the Ford Dining Hall, 1122 W. Stadium Ave., at 8:30 p.m. Friday. Originally, police thought the withdrawal was at 1:11 a.m. Saturday. They say that was the time when bank records were downloaded, not when withdrawals were made.
