PUEBLO, Colo. (AP) — Authorities plan to continue searching in the Pueblo area as they investigate the 2013 disappearance of a pregnant woman.

Investigators used heavy machinery and bloodhounds to search a creek bed near homes Wednesday in an area they have previously checked out as part of the Kelsie Schelling case.

Schelling's mother, Laura Saxton, says the family is entering its fifth holiday season without Kelsie or her baby, which describes as "torture."
