Volunteers Search For Missing Nevada 18-Year-Old Believed Kidnapped

RENO (CBS13) — More than one hundred people gathered in Nevada over the weekend to search for the woman believed to have been kidnapped from a Walmart east of Reno.

It was the second community search for 18-year-old Naomi Irion, who went missing two weeks ago from Fernley, Nevada.

Saturday, volunteers gathered at a truck stop near the Walmart where Irion was last seen.

The search came after the arrest of a suspect, identified as 41-year-old Troy Driver. He's being held on kidnapping charges.

Exactly how Driver was identified as a suspect in Irions' disappearance has not been disclosed by authorities. It's also unclear if and how Driver knew Irion.
