KSP uses cadaver dogs to search for missing baby

OHIO CO., Ky. (WFIE) – Kentucky State Police have a search team with cadaver dogs at the Reynolds Station.

Troopers say they are searching an area on Hardin Lane for missing eight-month-old Miya Tucker.

It is near the Deanfield Church property, about a half-mile from the house Miya lived in with her parents, Tesla Tucker and Cage Rudd, and her grandfather, Ricky Smith.

Miya's grandmother, Billie Smith, faces a domestic violence charge, and Timothy Roach faces drug charges.

Police say other family members tell them they haven't seen Miya in a month.

They say Tucker and Rudd aren't cooperating.

Our own Mitch Carter will be on hand at Hardin Lane throughout the day. He will have updates as we receive them and reporting tonight on 14 News.
