Sheriff’s Office receives over 400 tips by day 15 of Gannon Stauch search

El Paso County Sheriff's Office says it has received 423 different tips in regards to the search for Gannon Stauch, the 11-year-old who went missing from Lorson Ranch on Jan. 27.

Jacqueline Kirby, a spokesperson for EPCSO, says the agency hasn't released much information lately but the investigation is still their top priority.

"In the absence of us giving details specifically related to the investigation does not mean that the investigation has slowed down," Kirby said. "There are things that we have to keep close to protect the integrity of the investigation."

As temperatures warm up this week, the search for Gannon will go beyond 3,600 reported staff hours at the Sheriff's office. Deputies are also working closely with other agencies including the FBI.

Kirby says people with credible information should contact their office tipline 719-520-6666, or email tips@elpasoco.com. She also stressed that people should not use social media to report possible leads.

"We owe it to Gannon to get the information to the detectives as quickly as we can because they're going to be able to follow up on it," she said.
