Milwaukee police have not said if or when another search will be conducted. Friends of Major’s mother said they’re coming to Milwaukee from La Crosse Tuesday morning to help search for the boy.
Major’s father was too emotional to go on camera, but said he was close with Major’s deceased mother, Mallery Muenzenberger. He said he’s worried his son is likely scared, and he’s bracing for the possibility of another tragedy.
Activist Vaun Mayes pulled together a loosely-organized group and went a few blocks north to search McGovern Park. Mayes said, "That could be anybody's child. And they would want the help if it was them. We have to come together as a community."
Shortly afterward, roughly 25 police officers walked in and fanned out, searching the open fields, forest trails and the edge of the ponds. There were no dive teams and no one got in the water, and after 30 minutes the officers left
At one point, the group got in a heated discussion with a woman allegedly related to Jaheem Clark, the suspect who died Sunday from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. As the larger group walked from house to house, a smaller group kicked in a door and entered, calling for Major. It took time to restore order, and at the end of the search, nothing was found.
Mayes said, "We have a 3-year-old to find. And we hope, in the best interest of all parties involved, that he is alive and well."

The connection, if any, between Muenzenberger and Clark is unclear. Family says she was traveling to Madison, and they do not know why she was in Milwaukee.
