The reward for information leading to the whereabouts of a missing Barrie, Ont., teen climbed to $50,000 Friday after Microsoft Canada said it would add $25,000 to the existing pot, according to police.
The company's announcement came in response to the televised plea of 15-year-old Brandon Crisp's father, Steve, who asked the company to do all it could to help police search for his son.
Brandon's parents say the teen fled home after a fight over his excessive gaming on Microsoft's Xbox video game system.
"Microsoft said they would do anything they can to expedite the process to find Brandon," said Sgt. Dave Goodbrand, spokesman for the Barrie police.
Brandon's parents say he was obsessed with playing an online game called Call of Duty 4 on his Xbox and police have been working with Microsoft to track down the Internet addresses of everyone who interacted with the 15-year-old before he disappeared. There are concerns he may have gone to meet someone he met online.
The development came as three Barrie police investigators appeared on a local newscast to take phone-in tips.
Earlier, police wrapped up their sixth day combing a 40-sq.-km area searching for Brandon.
Despite help from about 400 volunteers, who trudged through farmers' fields and woods, police came up with little new to help them find the teen.
The search, which was expected to continue Saturday, is focused around an area where Brandon's bike was found and where a witness saw the teen about three hours after he left home on Oct. 13, said police. That is the only confirmed sighting of the boy.
Police have also recovered Brandon's knapsack, which had a toothbrush and deodorant inside. Read More...
