FBI releases details about suspected site in search for kids
(CNN) -- Authorities searching for two missing New Hampshire children were focusing efforts on the 190-mile long strip of Interstate 80 stretching from the Ohio-Indiana border to Joliet, Illinois. The FBI said investigators were searching for a rural, grassy area that could be located up to 10 miles on either side of Interstate 80. Details about the site the FBI is searching for in the Midwest include: • Five or six cement cylinders standing on end, approximately 4 feet in diameter and height. • A 6-foot fence with a rectangular pattern in the immediate area • A mound of gray or white rocks that would be used in drainage applications. • An old-fashioned silver and green hand-lever water pump. • An irregular cement slab, 4 or 5 feet in diameter, on the ground. • Several large shade trees, similar to willows with limbs extending to the ground. • A nearby eroding embankment. • A tan or yellow building within view of the site. Additionally, Jay Fallon, FBI supervisor in New Hampshire, released the following information about the approach to the site: • Exit I-80 westbound and make a right turn at the end of the exit onto a two-lane paved roadway, one lane each way. Take another right turn onto another two-lane roadway." • Fallon said the road may run parallel to I-80 and "has a yellow line down the middle, which may have a dotted yellow line." • To the right off this roadway is an opening in tall grass. The grass may be 3 to 4 feet tall, green at the bottom, tan or brown at the top, with seeds at the top." • There is a downhill slope from the roadway, then an uphill slope to the opening in the grass, Fallon said. • The grass may be "somewhat matted down" from other vehicles traveling through it in the past, Fallon said.
