The FBI, Coast Guard, and police from Boston and NYC continued to look for a 4-year-old girl and her father, after he abducted the child in Boston on Sunday. The authorities say Clark Rockefeller (not related to the well-known Rockefeller family) grabbed his daughter, Reigh, during a social worker-supervised visit and got into an SUV; the social worker held onto the vehicle and was dragged a distance. Then a female friend drove Rockefeller and Reigh to Grand Central Terminal; when she realized the child was missing, she went to a Queens station house and said Rockefeller mentioned heading to Bermuda. However, the Daily News reports "Rockefeller...may have given her wrong information expecting that she might later go to police." Rockefeller, who is described as a "con man" with "four aliases," has a yacht on Long Island.
