DUNKARD TOWNSHIP, Pa. —
Now, the FBI is part of the family's desperate search.
The search resumed around the family's Dunkard Township home Friday morning.
Agents said they have no evidence Gabrielle Miranda Bechen was abducted.
If it turns out to be a kidnapping, investigators said they will have a head start in finding her.
Bechen left home Tuesday morning to ride an all-terrain vehicle on nearby trails.
More than 120 searchers have been searching fields in a three-mile radius around her home.
So far, there is no trace of Bechen or her ATV.
Officials said Bechen has no history of running away and her current condition is considered endangered.
Investigators feel there may be suspicious circumstances surrounding her disappearance.
Bechen was last seen wearing tan shorts, dark shirt and black motorcycle helmet. She was carrying a pink bag.
Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers said all callers can remain anonymous and could be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.
REWARD FUND The friends and family of Gabrielle have set up a reward fund at the community bank in Greensboro.
Donations can be made to the reward fund at any Community Bank.
