Officers from 5 counties searching for missing girl
FBI sending in a team to help
Channel 4 learned that a 2-year-old and a 17-year-old cousin were sleeping in the same bedroom as Haleigh. They are both safe and detectives said the teenager had no information about what happened to Haleigh.
Haleigh's mother, who lives in south Georgia, went to Satsuma on Tuesday and was cooperating in the search.
Rose said that while they have no reason to suspect foul play, deputies went door to door and searched cars leaving the neighborhood and contacted known sex offenders in the area to establish their whereabouts. They also brought K-9 unit in to track any leads.
"Whoever has the child is not supposed to have the child at this point," Putnam County Detective John Merchant said during an afternoon news conference.
St. Johns and Volusia counties sent resources to help and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has contributed two boats and a helicopter to the search. A Jacksonville Sheriff's Office search boat is also helping out.
