The search for Elizabeth Jessica Shelley, the missing 5-year-old Logan girl, enters its third day as multiple law enforcement agencies focus on a 10-mile stretch from Logan to Hyrum.

Police have identified Shelley’s uncle, Alex Whipple, as the main suspect and have asked the public to help track his whereabouts since late Friday evening.

“All I can say at this time, is we have evidence to believe that he is the reason that she is missing,” Logan Capt. Tyson Budge told FOX13.

Whipple hasn’t cooperated with the investigation and was booked into jail on a probation violation.
