WVUA23 News Reporter Callie Cassady
According to our news partner, ABC 3340, multiple Fayette County sheriff’s office vehicles are near the property of a family at the center of missing toddler Kahleb Collins in Fayette County.
The home is located on Highway 129, just outside of Winfield.
Deputies could be seen stretching crime scene tape around the area just before 8:00 p.m. Wednesday.
Some people were also seen on the property with shovels in hand.
His grandfather, John Elton bailey, is being held on a $100,000 bond for failing to report a missing child.
While the complaint against Bailey does not name Kahleb, it reports Bailey did not report a child missing and had a duty to do so.
Authorities first learned Kahleb was missing after his family was in a deadly car crash on December 8th, that killed the father and a two-year-old sibling.
Kahleb’s mother remains in the ICU at UAB hospital in Birmingham.
