Search continues for missing Tennessee nursing student | Reuters

(Reuters) - Some 300 searchers combed northern Decatur County on Saturday for a 20-year-old Tennessee nursing student who has been missing for three days.

Holly Bobo of Darden was last seen Wednesday morning being led by a man in camouflage into the woods near the family home in Darden.

"Everybody is dedicated to this search," said Kevin Cagle, director of the Decatur County Emergency Management Agency.

Searchers were using a helicopter to pinpoint areas to send search teams on Saturday after late-afternoon rain, wind and hail cut short the search on Friday, Cagle said.

"We have a couple of different command posts set up," Cagle said. "We've got ATVs, horses ... foot searchers."
