Authorities searching for a missing Orlando, Florida toddler stopped their digging at the child’s grandparents’ home on Friday morning and called for assistance from K-9 units.
A tip from a neighbor sent detectives to the home on Thursday.
They resumed digging early Friday morning in a hunt for clues to the whereabouts of the little girl, but shortly before noon, the digging stopped, and K-9 units were dispatched.
Orange County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. John Allen delivered a briefing at about 12 p.m
Allen said that there is no sign of Caylee Anthony, but they are continuing to search at other locations besides the home.
He also said that bringing out K-9 units did not indicate that the case was a homicide investigation.
They still have reason to be believe the child could be alive.
Deputies have remained at the Anthonys’ house around the clock.
It’s where the little girl’s mother’s parents live and where the mother stayed on-and-off with Caylee.
The search at the home wrapped up Friday afternoon.
Caylee’s playground set was scrutinized by investigators on Thursday.
Detectives removed it from the back yard, and several items were taken from the home.
A shovel was also removed from a neighbor’s house.
Authorities said Caylee’s grandparents have been helpful.
“The grandparents really want to find their granddaughter, so anything that we’ve asked for, they’ve been very, very helpful,” Orange County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. John Allen said.
Investigators said a neighbor claimed to see Caylee’s mother, Casey Anthony, at her parents’ home recently while they were away.
Casey Anthony remains jailed on Friday on charges of child neglect.
She made a first appearance in court on Thursday.
Judge John Jordan ordered her held without bond as the investigation continues.
The investigation into Caylee Anthony’s disappearance began when her grandparents called police and said they hadn’t seen the child recently and were concerned.
Her mother told police that the child had disappeared from a baby-sitter’s home and that she had been conducting her own search in order to spare the grandparents any grief.
