A request by the Rush County Sheriff's Department has intensified the search for a missing girl.

Valerie Tindall, 17, has been the focus of a Silver Alert.  Tindall was last seen on June 7. Since the alert was issued Rush County authorities have asked for anyone with information to call them.  Now, a more specific request has been made.

Property owners, notably between Shelbyville and Homer/Arlington, have been asked to check their properties. Those that have deep creek beds, low level fields, ravines and properties off the roadways where a vehicle could be hidden are encouraged to check those areas.  Also, any barns or outbuildings should be checked.

For drivers in the area, they are asked to keep their eyes open for any areas where a vehicle could have left the roadway and not easily be seen.

Tindall was reported to be operating a green 2000 Honda Accord with Indiana license plate - ZYK833.

Valerie Tindall is a white female, 5'6", 162 pounds.  She was wearing a light blue shirt, jean shorts and sandals when last seen on June 7.
