Desiree Young, whose son, Kyron Horman, has been missing since June 4, 2010, says volunteers conducting a weekend-long search may have found new evidence connected to the boy's disappearance. 
 
 "We found a lot of things, and possibly evidence," Young said at a press conference following the search Sunday afternoon. 
 
 Young joined a crew of about 60 searchers and 10 dog teams from around the country that combed the area near Northwest Germantown Road and Northwest Skyline Boulevard Saturday and Sunday looking for any signs of her son, who was last seen at the school the morning his stepmother, Terri Horman, dropped him off. 
 
 Kyron was 7 at the time. His disappearance spawned the largest search effort in Oregon history. 
 
 Young declined to go into specifics about the possible evidence and where it was found. But she said the search was a success and crews ruled out areas where Horman's body could be, and efforts to find her son will continue. 
 
 "I still feel like I'm stuck back on June 4," she said. "I can't move on from that because I don't have answers, I don't have Kyron."

 ||||| During a news conference at Skyline School Sunday evening, Desiree Young said a search she organized for her missing son, Kyron Horman, was successful. 
 
 About 60 volunteers, two nonprofit organizations and 10 search dogs focused on the area around Northwest Germantown Road and Skyline Boulevard. 
 
 The search started Saturday morning and wrapped up Sunday. 
 
 "We're not going to find Kyron if we're not searching," said Young. 
 
 Young said the search turned up "a lot of things and possibly evidence," but she would not elaborate on what items were found. She said the items were turned over to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. A spokesman for MCSO said they received the items and were processing them to determine whether it's related to the Kyron's case or not. MCSO was aware of the search but was not involved. 
 
 "It's been a passion of mine to do as much as I can to keep this case moving forward and to help law enforcement to get some answers and find out what happened on June 4th," said Young. 
 
 Kyron Horman was 7 years old when he vanished from Skyline School on June 4, 2010. His disappearance prompted the largest search in state history, but he was never found. 
 
 No suspect has ever been named in the case, but the investigation centered on stepmother Terri Horman. 
 
 "I am not going to lie down and take this," said Young. "I refuse to let Terri win. It's not going to happen that way." 
 
 Young said she plans to organize more searches for her son in the future.

– A breakthrough at last in the Kyron Horman case? The mother of the Oregon boy who disappeared on June 4, 2010, says a search in the Portland area turned up "a lot of things and possibly evidence." Around 60 volunteers and 10 search dogs were involved in the hunt for clues to the whereabouts of Kyron, who was the focus of the largest search in Oregon's history when he disappeared aged 7, KPTV reports. His stepmother was the focus of the investigation but police have never named a suspect in the case. "I still feel like I'm stuck back on June 4," his mother tells the Oregonian. "I can't move on from that because I don't have answers, I don't have Kyron."
