Cialize, Oregon (AP) – Oregon authorities are looking for a missing 2-year-old boy to play football on the yard on the last day.
Dane Paulsen was reportedly missing at around 4:25 p.m. Saturday, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office said. Members of the sheriff’s office and fire and police agencies searched the hike and surrounding areas on Saturday with drones with thermal imaging equipment, the sheriff’s office said in a statement on social media.
