More volunteers join the search for Jaliek
CAPITAL REGION, N.Y. -- More volunteers from the Texas EquuSearch group have arrived in the Capital Region to help look for missing 12-year-old Jaliek Rainwalker.

The volunteers arrived from Ohio a day early, armed with more high tech equipment. They will use special Side Scan Sonar equipment as well as a Radio Operated Vehicle, which is a remote controlled mini sub, with a high resolution camera onboard.

On Sunday, volunteers will start their search of the Hudson River near Troy and Albany. Weather permitting; they'll search again on Monday.

Last week, EquuSearch used a small drone plane to search heavily wooded areas near the Battenkill, but didn't turn up any results.
