The Aruba Herald:
On Friday, members of a special division of the local Police Corps together with firefighters held a search for the body of an American woman who was reported missing on Aruba last week Tuesday in the area north of the Dog Cemetery in Sero Colorado. Firefighters were lowered into different crevices that used to be covered; through the years they were either opened or their covers had been destroyed.
When they finished the search inside five of the six wells, police decided to begin a search in the sandy area close to the Dog Cemetery, where they walked in a certain pattern, inserting rods into the sand.
The search was stopped at sunset. Firefighters said water reached up to their knees inside the holes. No traces of a body nor any proof of the presence of a body were found. Authorities conducted the search with the intention of eliminating doubts related to the disappearance of Robyn Gardner, a 35-year-old American woman who was reported missing by her travel companion during a snorkeling trip last week. The travel companion, Gary Giordano was detained by local police on the island last week Friday on suspicion of murder and/or manslaughter. Giordano's lawyer was present at Colony, sitting at the bar
where the American couple had had something to drink and/or eat. The lawyer was also at the location of the search, only for a few minutes, before the firefighters were lowered into the holes.
