The extensive ground search for two little boys on the Red Lake Indian Reservation won't happen today; they've been called off. But, investigators say they are still working on the case. The brothers, one four years old, the other two, disappeared last Wednesday morning. They were last seen playing in their yard on the reservation.

Cathy Wurzer talked with Red Lake Tribal Chairman, Buck Jourdain, who says there were many groups that were involved in the massive search in the days after the boys vanished.
