PORTLAND, Ore. - We caught sight of searchers out for a second day along two roads near Skyline Boulevard.
Search teams spent all day Sunday combing areas off Northwest Germantown Road. The terrain there is difficult, and it gets even steeper and brushier the farther west you go.
The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office would only confirm that the search is related to the Kyron Horman case - and that crews are following up on tips related to the missing boy.
Neighbors tell us this is the second full day of searching in the area - some of it in areas so steep that teams had to rappel down cliff faces in order to cover the ground completely.
They say officers also went door-to-door interviewing neighbors with many of the same questions asked after the search first began.
Indeed, neighbors say teams of searchers went through this same area shortly after Kyron went missing … during the first wave of massive searches.
This weekend, however, sources have told KATU News that the searchers are following tips based on information from DeDe Spicher, a friend of Kyron's stepmother Terri Horman.
"All they did is they came to the door and said they were with search and rescue this morning and wanted permission to go on our land to check the streams," said neighborhood resident Judith Emerson.
Some crews were using search dogs to go through forested areas along Germantown Road.
There is no indication yet whether the searches found anything significant that might be tied to Kyron's disappearance.
