Girl Afraid of Hurricanes Tries to Ride Bike to Ohio


DELAND FL - An 8-year-old girl who recently moved to Florida caused a panic when she tried to ride back home to Ohio on her bicycle out of fear of hurricanes. A sheriff's helicopter, search dogs and neighbors found the girl after an hour-long search Wednesday night.
"It is amusing but at the same time sad," DeLand police Deputy Chief Randel Henderson said.
According to a police report, Heather Snoke told investigators "that she was headed back to Columbus Ohio, because she was afraid of hurricanes and that was her home." Full Story - Wayside Gardens
