9-year-old boy.
Officials say Colton Clark was last seen about 1 p-m Thursday at the home

Seminole County Sheriff Joe Craig says search crews and a team of dogs
searched the area last night and officials are continuing to search now
about three-quarters of a mile south of Seminole.

that the boy was abducted.

SEMINOLE, Okla. (AP) _ Search crews from several agencies continued to scour a wooded area south of Seminole on Saturday for a missing 9-year-old boy.
Colton Clark was last seen about 1 p.m. Thursday at the home of his aunt and uncle just south of Seminole, Seminole County Sheriff Joe Craig said Saturday.
``We've searched last night and we've got the search teams together again today,'' Craig said. ``We're searching the fields and wooded area here, just trying to see if we can find any clues.''
A team of dogs was used Friday night, but were unable to pick up the boy's scent, Craig said.
An Amber Alert had not been issued because there is no evidence that the boy was abducted, officials said.
Craig said the aunt and uncle, who have custody of the boy, were getting ready to leave the house when they noticed he was missing.
``He could have wondered out or gotten out on the road and someone picked him up,'' Craig said.
Colton is about 4-feet-4, 65 pounds and has short brown hair and wears silver-framed glasses. He was last seen wearing a sky blue shirt, Wrangler jeans and blue and white tennis shoes, Craig said.
This is the third time in less than a month and the second time since last week a child has been reported missing in Oklahoma.
Elizabeth Wagoner, 10, of Tulsa disappeared March 28 and was found dead that evening. Jamie Rose Bolin, 10, of Purcell, was reported missing April 12. Her body was found two days later.
Arrests have been made in both cases.
