SATSUMA, Fla., Feb. 16 (UPI) -- Sheriff's officials said they would focus on some selected areas of interest as they searched Monday for a Florida girl believed to be kidnapped from her bed.

Putnam County Sheriff's Lt. Johnny Greenwood said investigators would be working from tips they received in the apparent abduction of 5-year-old Haleigh Cummings, who was believed to have been taken from her family's home in rural Satsuma last week.

The Orlando Sentinel said more than 200 volunteers helped in a large-scale weekend search but volunteers would not be take part in the more-defined search.

Many of the volunteers were from the group Texas EquuSearch, which took part in the hunt for Caylee Anthony, the 2-year-old girl from nearby Orlando who disappeared last summer and was later found dead near her home. Caylee's mother, Casey Anthony, has been charged in her death.
