STONEHAM, Mass. (AP) — A wooded area of Stoneham will be searched for clues in the unsolved 1989 disappearance of a 14-year-old girl.
WBZ-TV reports that volunteer teams with cadaver dogs will scour a portion of the Middlesex Fells Reservation this weekend. The search was prompted by an anonymous tip received by a private investigator working for Melanie Melanson's family.
The Woburn teen disappeared in October 1989 after attending a party in the woods with friends. Her body was never found.
The district attorney's office announced a $5,000 reward in 2009 for information that might help solve the case.
