12:02 pm
girl around 2:00 this morning. and then presumably, when the parents woke up, they realized the girl was missing. a massive ground and air search was launched this morning before the girl was eventually located on harrison circle which is in the neighboring community of rowley. we are told that is 8-10 miles away and certainly, right now, the question a lot of people are asking is how did she get from hamilton to that location in rowley? and also investigators won't tell us who found her there. but again, she was found there. she was taken to beverly hospital. we are told that police were talking to her parents. as we heard late this morning at a news conference, police said after talking to the parents, they were taking the parents from here over to beverly hospital so they could be reunited with their daughter. you can image a lot of anxious moments this morning. some relief right now. but for people who live in town here, a lot of questions about how this whole thing happened and why. we are live outside the

are working and trying to tie up all the loose ends and get this together. we did hear from the state police spokesman as they are treating several locations as crime scenes right now. one of the main reasons they are doing that is because they are until they are able to rule things out as to exactly what happened here, they have to treat this as a crime until they can figure out exactly how that girl left the house and how she ended up in rowley and where she was located around 10:00 this morning. >> nancy: all right, thank you. obviously, a lot of questions there. we are learning new information about the ongoing investigation. cheryl fiandaca is live now in the newsroom with the breaking details. >> reporter: police are questioning a person in connection with this incident. my source is telling me the person of interest is cooperating with investigators and is answering questions. and there are a lot. how to child got out of the home and how she ended up on the side of the road with a head your. police have not made an arrest yet. this investigation, i'm told, is unfolding very quickly.
