Madeleine McCann Disappearance: New Search Underway in Portugal A renewed search for Madeleine McCann, the British toddler who disappeared in Praia da Luz, Portugal, in 2007, is underway. German authorities are leading the investigation, focusing on Christian Brueckner, a German national with a history of child sexual offenses. The case, which went cold for many years, has seen a resurgence of activity. Authorities are using search warrants in a wide-ranging investigation. "It is a really harrowing story," says Molly Hunter, NBC News correspondent, in a recent video report. The video depicts the timeline of events, from the family's vacation in 2007 to the naming of Brueckner as a suspect and the current search efforts. The search is expected to continue until Friday. This renewed investigation offers a glimmer of hope for the McCann family and underscores the determination of authorities to solve this long-standing mystery. The extensive search and use of search warrants signal a significant commitment to finding answers.
