Washington County, Fla:

At a news conference Monday afternoon Washington County Sheriff Bobby Haddock said that they have a person of interest in the case of missing 7-month-old Shannon Lea Dedrick. They would not release the name of the potential suspect or any further details.

For the first time we also now know that the last time Shannon was seen she was in her parents’ bedroom when they went to sleep Saturday. The Washington County Sheriff’s Office says she went missing some time between 3:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. Her parents reported her missing around 11:30 a.m.

Immediately following the report the Sheriff’s Office says 1300 calls to residents in the area were made. On Sunday night, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement put out a Missing Child Alert.

The Sheriff’s Office is searching the wooded area near Shannon’s home at 793C Brown Street in Chipley. Many other agencies are assisiting in the search including Bay, Gulf, Holmes, Jackson and Liberty County Sheriff’s Offices as well as police departments for Graceville and Chipley.
