CHIPLEY, Fla. (AP) - Search teams are continuing to scour a densely wooded area of the northern Panhandle for an infant missing for three days.

Seven-month-old Shannon Dedrick was reported missing by her parents around 11 a.m. Sunday. The family lives in a remote area of mobile homes off a dirt road near Chipley.

The Washington County Sheriff's Office has released little information about the case, saying that the parents last saw the infant around 3 a.m. Sunday and reported her missing later that day.

Sheriff Bobby Haddock has said investigators have a "person of interest" in the case and not believe the public is any danger.
