Beer Bottles Become Focus In Search For Florida ChildSearchers Looking For Empty Budweiser BottlesPOSTED: 9:25 am EDT April 15, 2005 RUSKIN, Fla. -- Police in Ruskin say they are hopeful they will be able to find Sarah Lunde, a 13-year-old girl who has been missing since last Friday. More than 300 volunteers are back out today in the rural area near Tampa, and detectives are asking them to look for bottles of Budweiser beer. According to Lunde's older brother, an acquaintance who was in their home at the time of the girl's disappearance took a bottle of beer with him. Police are not labeling David Onstott a suspect in the case, but say he has gotten their attention. Onstott is a convicted sex offender who had a relationship with the missing girl's mother. Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee said Onstott is jailed on other charges and has been questioned in this case. Among those searching Thursday was Mark Lunsford, whose daughter Jessica was abducted by a sex offender, and found dead last month.Lunde was last seen on the 2800 block of 30th Street SE in Ruskin, Fla. She was last seen wearing orange and blue basketball shorts and a T-shirt. Lunde has a green half cast on her left forearm. She usually wears her hair in a ponytail. Previous Story:
