PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The Curry County sheriff’s office says a missing 4-year-old girl was found crying in the woods late Thursday less than 200 yards from her southwest Oregon home. Little Zoey Dorsey vanished from her house two miles east of Brookings on Wednesday afternoon.
The sheriff’s office says she’s been taken to a Crescent City, Calif. hospital.
Deputy Randy Ullom says the girl was taken by ambulance to Sutter Coast Hospital with her parents following the ambulance. Ullom says she was found in steep, rugged woods close to her house.
More than 100 searchers combed the area on foot Thursday, aided by helicopters and six dog search teams. The family lives up the Chetco River from Brookings, along the southern Oregon coast.
