Several vehicles coming & going periodically here at the scene. On site: Craven sheriff's deputies, Craven EMS, vehicles from Lenoir & Johnston sheriff depts, Township Fire Rescue, Vanceboro Rescue Squad. Could be more but that's what I've been able to see. #CaseyHathaway pic.twitter.com/EocdWQavuW

NEW: Volunteers are arriving. While they are accepting volunteers, there's no guarantee that you will get used. Craven EMS tells me the bad weather will hamper some of their efforts but they are continuing to search. #CaseyHathaway pic.twitter.com/UxvKsxDMue

The sheriff's office has also asked people to check their property, cars and storage sheds for Casey.

\"We're not giving up,\" added the county's emergency management coordinator, Stanley Kite.

Casey has blonde hair and brown eyes. He stands at 28 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds, the sheriff's office said.

Anyone with information is urged to call the Craven County Sheriff's Office at 252-633-0498 or the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation at 919-662-4500.
