Breaking news in Hitchcock. A search is underway tied to Clyde Hedrick and James Elmore Jr.
Both men lived in this neighborhood in the 1980s at the same time.
Right now, investigators are searching deep in the woods, according to neighbors.
Notably, this is an area I flagged before in previous exclusive reports.

How this search ties to the Calder Road victims
This Hitchcock search Texas Killing Fields case connects back to Calder Road.
Four young women were found there in the 1980s.
They are Laura Miller, Audrey Cook, Heide Fye, and Donna Prudhomme.
Investigators say James Elmore Jr. told them he gave a vial of cocaine to Clyde Hedrick.
He said Hedrick then gave it to 16-year-old Laura Miller.
Authorities believe that led to her death.
Elmore also told investigators he helped move bodies.
He named Laura Miller and Audrey Cook.
Those statements matter.
They keep attention on properties tied to both men.
The Texas Killing Fields murders case is much bigger.
More than 30 women and girls have been found across this region.
That is why this Hitchcock search matters now.
