Wade Steffey missing since January 13, 2007 … The Searches Continue
Volunteers continue to search for the missing Purdue student, Wade Steffey. Searchers hope to find Wade Steffey’s cell phone.
One of the areas will be on campus looking for Steffey’s missing cell phone. Bishop didn’t want to say this morning where the other two areas would be so that people wouldn’t decide to search on their own as it will encompass some private property.
Police have been looking for any evidence they can link to Steffey’s disappearance, including a silver, flip-style Verizon phone that belongs to Steffey.
Search for missing Purdue student continues with SAR dogs
This was the fourth time police have used trained dogs to search the campus for signs of Wade S. Steffey, a Purdue freshman from Bloomington. Steffey has been missing since Jan. 13.
The dog team that searched Tuesday, Advance K9 Search & Recovery, Inc., of Indianapolis, works closely with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children based in Alexandria, Va.
“The K9s are searching at the epicenter of the area where we last knew where Wade was,” said Capt. John Cox of the Purdue University Police Department. “They’re going to double check and triple check. We don’t want to miss anything.”
