, the Powhatan Sheriff’s Office said an eight-year-old boy and an eight-year-old girl went missing just before dusk the day before.
“They took off further into woods and then got disoriented and turned around and they couldn’t figure out how to get back,” he told CTVNews.ca in a telephone interview on Tuesday. After searching the house where the children were staying, Searfoss said he, his Dutch Shepherd K9 named Bane, and his shift partner went into the woods to track the missing boy and girl.
