UPDATE: Investigators searched a creek near the Kansas City home where a baby was reported missing nearly two weeks ago.

Investigators also Monday brought tracking dogs to the yard of the home where the baby’s parents have been staying since they reported their 10-month-old daughter, Lisa Irwin, was missing. Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley called police early on Oct. 4 to say the baby had been abducted.

Kansas City police said a section of the creek behind the family’s home was diverted so investigators could get a better look. Investigators later brought dogs to the home of Jeremy Irwin’s parents searching for clues that might provide information about the baby’s disappearance.

Earlier Monday, Deborah Bradley reported on NBC’s Today show that she was drunk the night the baby was reported missing.

 

ORIGINAL STORY: The mother of a baby who went missing from her Kansas City home two weeks ago says she was drunk when the girl disappeared.

Deborah Bradley told NBC’s “Today” show Monday that the night her baby, Lisa Irwin, disappeared she had bought wine and consumed “enough to be drunk.”

Bradley says police asked her if she killed Lisa, who was 10 months old when she disappeared Oct. 4. She says she doesn’t “think alcohol changes a person enough to do something like that.”

She says she fears being arrested because then the search for Lisa will end and she will “never know what happened.”

Hundreds of state and federal law enforcement officers have been involved in the search for Lisa, but have turned up no evidence pointing to her whereabouts.
