Chopper over river in search for girl, 12

A helicopteris in the air again near Bridgewater as the search continues along the LaHave River for a missing 12-year-old girl.

But policeare doubtful they will findKarissa Boudreau there.

"I'd indicated on Friday that we were 90-per-cent certain she wasn't in there but there's that 10 per cent, obviously. We want to cut that down as much as we can," Bridgewater police Sgt. John Collyer said Monday.

Boudreau disappeared Jan. 27 after an argument with her mother in the parking lot of the Bridgewater Mall, which borders the river.

Penny Boudreau says she went into a grocery store and left her daughterin the car, and whenshe came out, the girl was gone.

Karissa was wearing only light clothing and plastic Crocs at the time.

At a news conference onTuesday, Penny Boudreau made a tearful plea for her daughter to come home or call, urging her to put the fight behind her.

TheDepartment of Natural Resources helicopter spent four hours in the air on Thursday.
