disappearance. Neighbors confirmed to KMSP that the home officers are focused on is where thePagnac family lives, and property tax records from Hennepin County shows the family has owned thehome since 1981. Police also taped off tennis courts at a nearby park.

At the time of her disappearance, Amy's family claimed that the girl had been abducted from a gasstation in nearby Osseo, which, like Maple Grove, is located in the northwestern suburbs ofMinneapolis.

Just last year, Susan Pagnac and Marshal Midden told KMSP that they believe their daughter is stillalive, and said the rescue of three women who had been held captive for more than a decade inCleveland gave them hope.

At a Sunday afternoon press conference, police did not confirm that the search warrant wasconnected with the Amy Pagnac case. In fact, the search warrant will remain sealed from publicrecord, but authorities offered no explanation as to why that decision was made.

Officials also would not say if any member of the Pagnac family is considered a suspect, and theywould not say whether the family still lives there or comment on their current whereabouts.
