Ronald Cumming’s and his family made another emotional plea Thursday for Haleigh Cummings to come home.
More than 1300 tips have come in over the last 10 days since the five year old went missing in the middle of the night.
One of those tips came from Tennessee.
On Sunday a woman called Knoxville police to say around 2pm she saw a man in a Knoxville restaurant with a little girl. The woman said she looks like the missing Florida girl
She added that the man was in a red RAV4 and looked like he was shielding her from the public.
Knoxville police said they didn't find that car, but turned the information over to Florida authorities. Thursday the Putnam County sheriff said he has not located the people this woman said she saw.
Detectives in Putnam County have seized a car and are processing it in the case but said they would not discuss a vehicle description.
The tip is interesting since one of the people being questioned in the case is a cousin of Mistie Croslin's, the 17 year old girlfriend of the missing girl’s father. The cousin is from Tennessee and was visiting when Haleigh disappeared.
