Search for missing girl in Franklin County

By The Associated Press wire report August 31, 2008 12:33 PM

SALEM TOWNSHIP -- Dozens of volunteers have joined state game wardens in the search for an 8-yar-old girl in a rugged region of western Maine.

An aircraft, ATVs and dogs were also helping in the search for Leah Cuetara, who's believed to be lost in the woods of Salem Township in Franklin County.

She's been missing since Saturday morning.

Wardens say Leah may have wandered away from a family reunion. Searchers say they may have found the girl's footprints in the woods, but no other sign of Leah. A command post has been set up at Mount Abram High School.

Leah was wearing a pink tank top and a gray sweatshirt and blue jeans when she disappeared.
