Police and emergency crews are searching for a 9-year-old autistic boy who disappeared while on a walk with his family.
Robert “Robbie” Wood Jr. wandered away while with his father, brother and a woman at North Anna Battlefield Park in Hanover County, Va., about 2:45 p.m. Sunday, police said. The search continued throughout the night as temperatures dropped to 45 degrees.
Hanover County Sheriff's Office spokesman Michael Trice said air crews would continue searching for the boy. Crews on the ground are using search dogs.
The 80-acre park is not fenced in, so officials are concerned Robbie could wander off the property.
Robbie does not speak. He has blond hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a red, long-sleeved T-shirt, blue athletic pants and blue shoes.
