More than 300 volunteers showed up Friday night to aid in the search but no sign of the boy was found and it was called off around midnight. Canines are assisting in the search, which includes the TBI and several other law enforcement agencies as well as hundreds of volunteers.
K-9 units are assisting in the search, which includes the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
A little before 1 o’clock 50 volunteers were sent on the first bus to the scene. Authorities warned them to prepare for cold, wet conditions in the search. “I pray that the boy is good”, volunteer David Terry, one of the residents, told the station. The 2-year-old toddler was on a walk with his 4-year-old sister and grandmother when he vanished. “We’ve got to get this baby home”, he added.
Officials say trained search and rescue workers are on the ground and National Guard helicopters are in the air.
Community members also helped spread the word about the 2-year-old’s disappearance with Facebook posts and the hashtag #FindNoah on Twitter.
But with dropping temperatures after Thursday night’s rain and darkness setting in again, there is definitely concern. He was last seen wearing a long-sleeved gray shirt and blue jeans.
