WOODWARD, Okla. (AP) -- The search continues in a Woodward County landfill for the remains of a 6-year-old boy who disappeared four years ago.

A tip several weeks ago sent searchers to the landfill southeast of Woodward in hopes of finding the body of Logan Tucker.

Volunteers from local oil-field companies have moved more than 50 tons of trash and searchers have started a detailed search by examining every backhoe bucket for any signs of remains.

Logan's mother -- Katherine Rutan -- was charged with first-degree murder in February and remains in jail on $250,000 bond.
