Law enforcement searched both the land and the Little Conewago and Conewago creeks in York County last week in an effort to find Tracy Scanlon, who has been missing for months and is believed to be a homicide victim.
The Susquehanna Township Police Department in Dauphin County thanked the many departments that assisted in the search for Scanlon, also known as Tracy Zalenski, on Friday in York County. Scanlon disappeared in late February, and family and friends have not heard from her.
Law enforcement searched 10 miles of the creeks, starting in Conewago Township and ending in York Haven, for nearly seven hours, a news release states. They used technology and equipment "to scour the land, water and air for any sign of Tracy."
"Although the search that day did not conclude with a definitive discovery, it will continue in the days and weeks to come," the release states. "Susquehanna Township Police are committed to solving Tracy’s homicide, prosecuting a suspect(s) and finding her body, in hopes of bringing some semblance of respite to her family."
Susquehanna Township Police Department thanked the Bible Baptist Church in Conewago Township for the use of its facility during search. It served as the base of operations, the release states.
