no physical evidence found, police say

Police said they have yet to find any physical evidence related to Brian Laundrie in a large Florida nature reserve where he is believed to be hiding – and do not know if he is dead or alive.

Laundrie has been the subject of a manhunt on the Carlton Reservation near his family’s home in North Port Florida since his girlfriend, Gabby Petito, was found dead in Wyoming three weeks ago .

Authorities will continue to comb the nature reserve for clues to Laundrie’s whereabouts, North Port Police spokesman Josh Taylor told CNN on Friday.

Taylor told NewsNationNow.com that something has to give way in the case.

“We have to find something. I think there is so much attention on this. I don’t know if this case will ever become an unsolved case, ”Taylor said. “We will continue to search. You know, we could research this Carlton reservation and the lands around it for a long, long time.

North Port Police confirmed this week that an abandoned vehicle notice was placed on a Ford Mustang belonging to the laundries on September 14, at one of the entrances to the nature reserve.

Laundrie’s parents went to the park to find their son and saw the notice, a day after Brian Laundrie said he was heading to the reservation, according to Laundrie’s lawyer. The laundries brought the vehicle home the next day.
