KANSAS CITY — The parents of missing baby Lisa Irwin attended a candlelight prayer vigil for their baby daughter Sunday night outside their home in northern Kansas City. It’s the first time in days that Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley have been seen in public, ABC News reported. She was crying, sobbing, trembling against her boyfriend’s arms. All of the people there wearing a T-shirt with a picture of baby Lisa on it. Bradley told reporter that it meant to her that the community in Kansas City had turned out for the vigil in support of the family. In the meantime, Kansas City police continue to track down leads in a case that seems to have few. An ABC News program reported Sunday it had obtained surveillance video from a gas station near the home showing a man leaving a wooded area during the night Llisa disappeared. ABC reported that police were investigating the tip. The family says Lisa was taken from her crib and reported her missing at 4 a.m. Oct. 4. A neighbor saw a man carrying a baby in the neighborhood a few hours earlier, ABC said. Another man has told reporters he saw a man walking with a baby about three miles from the Irwin home early that morning. He said he reported that information to police. Kansas City police have had no comment on the ABC report. Investigators continued their search inside the family home this weekend for another 17 hours after a cadaver dog got a positive hit for a human corpse on a rug in Lisa’s bedroom last week. They removed almost none of the items in the house but apparently gleamed enough evidence afterwards to leave. That included a half-empty box of wine. Police had apparently checked the wine out to see just how much Bradley was drinking that night. She has admitted she was drinking before she put Lisa to bed. Police have not said what they have found. But an Irwin family attorney Cindy Short sais the positive hit was unimportant. It could have been a dirty diaper that was sitting on the floor or even urine or something else, she said. The Irwin house is 40 years old, and she said there is no way to know what that hit was from.
