NEWTON COUNTY, Ga. — Family members say a missing 2-week-old baby from her home in a trailer park was found dead Sunday.
Volunteer search crews said they found the body of Caliyah McNabb in the woods in a duffel bag.
Authorities had searched for the missing child Saturday in Newton County.
The baby's parents called 911 when they noticed she was missing around 10 a.m. They told investigators she was fed at 5 a.m. and was gone when they woke up.
Family members gave Channel 2's Chris Jose a photo of the child.
Newton County sheriff's deputies and search dogs were at the Eagle Point trailer park in Covington. The search grid was a 2-mile radius.
