Marc Bookal missing

The ground search for Marc Bookal is back on after investigators received a lead that sent them back to the neighborhood the toddler went missing from.  Authorities began searching the area around Benkard Avenue as well as inside and outside Liberty Street School in the area on Friday morning and will continue until the lead is exhausted. 

Marc Bookal was reported missing by his mother’s boyfriend, Cory Byrd on December 14, 2009.  Marc’s family has gone through the freezing weather and the holidays without their child, and earlier this week, police called off the ground search.  The child hasn’t been seen since Byrd told police that he found the downstairs door open to their home, and Marc missing.  Earlier this week, police told me they called off the ground search to locate Marc, but the investigation to find out what happened to him is still on going.
