More than 150 people are combing the coast looking for the body of the 4th child thought to have been thrown off the Dauphin Island Bridge. Searchers are hoping today will be the last day of the search. Bad weather forced them to call off the search yesterday. Today's search involved 25 boats. They are looking for the body of a young girl. Bayou La Batre Police say their father, Lam Luong threw the little girl, her sister and her two brothers off the Dauphin Island Bridge January 7th. All of the children were under the age of three. The boy's bodies were recovered last weekend, and a little girl's body was found Tuesday. News 5 is following the search very closely. We will have updated information thoughout the day here in WKRG.com and on News 5.

May we all hope and pray that the searches and volunteers will soon find this precious Little Angel, but for the family mostly...as well as our community here in Mobile, the entire gulf coast or just our whole nation. That we may find some comfort of closure...and all who is and was affected. We will always remember...and never forget this tragedy.

LET’S

LIGHT

A CANDLE

TONIGHT

FOR

THE

ANGEL

THAT

STILL

MISSING.

If you don’t light a candle tonight...maybe you can just find it in your heart to remember for just a moment in your own way of how precious “Life” is...as it can be taken away at any time, any place, and any where at any given moment.
