ORANGE PARK -- The Somer Thompson case made national headlines Saturday night as it aired on "America's Most Wanted."
During the program, two sketches were shown. Clay County deputies believe the tote bag and round lunch box with a pink pig design belonged to the 7-year-old.
Witnesses say they think she may have had the items with her when she was last seen walking on Gano Avenue.
Investigators say neither items have been found.
So far, authorities have received nearly 3,000 tips in Thompson's case, but no arrests have been made.
The Orange Park girl disappeared two weeks ago on her walk home from school.
She was found during an exhaustive search of a landfill 50 miles away, where trash from her neighborhood is taken over the Florida/Georgia border.
