(CBS/WBZ/AP) CONWAY, N.H. - New Hampshire investigators in the case of missing Maine mother Krista Dittmeyer have canceled a scheduled press conference and are referring press inquiries to the Attorney General's Office.
Earlier today, police blocked access to and searched a pond a quarter mile from where Dittmeyer's car was found idling with its hazard lights blinking at 6:30 a.m. Saturday at the Cranmore Mountain ski area. Her 14-month-old daughter was found unharmed inside the car.
Assistant Attorney General Jane Young, who is in charge of the investigation, did not immediately return calls for comment.
Young is one of the office's homicide prosecutors.
According to CBS affiliate WBZ, police say Dittmeyer, who lives and works in Portland and has ties to Bridgton, Maine, last talked to family members at about 8 p.m. Friday by phone.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Conway police at 603-356-5715.
