PIMA – The search for a missing 4-year-old girl who was swept away by floodwaters in Cottonwood Wash on Thursday night continued Friday morning as numerous volunteers walked the area or utilized off-road vehicles. 

A family was reportedly in their suburban when the vehicle was overtaken by floodwaters from Cottonwood Wash on Thursday night. Authorities were dispatched to the wash at about 9:22 p.m. and rescued five of six occupants from the top of the vehicle, however, a 4-year-old girl was swept away.
