Seven years later, Haleigh Cummings' disappearance still an open investigation

Wednesday marks seven years since kindergartner Haleigh Cummings disappeared from her Satsuma home.

According to the original Florida Amber Alert issued for Haleigh, she was sleeping in her bed at her home in the Hermit's Cove neighborhood on the evening of Feb. 9, 2009 and it was discovered she was missing in the early morning hours of Feb. 10, 2009.

In January, an age progression photo showing what Haleigh would look like at age 12 was released. Action News Jax sat down with Haleigh's great-grandmother Annette Sykes to look at the photo, released by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

"I wish this little Haleigh was here ... I'd love to get to know this Haleigh. I'd love to know what she's like now. What has she done all these years," Sykes said in January.

Haleigh’s disappearance is still an open investigation at the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office.

"My office will not rest while trying to determine the whereabouts of Haleigh Cummings," Sheriff Jeff Hardy said in January. "We are still actively following up on any information we receive, and the investigation is continuing."

Anyone with any information on Haleigh's whereabouts is asked to contact Crime Stoppers of Northeast Florida at 1-888-277-8477.
