As the search for Dr. Jay Sloop entered its fifth day in Kyiv, organizers explained why volunteers focused their efforts on a large urban park in the Ukrainian capital.
The retired obstetrician from Yakima was last seen Tuesday after he left for a morning walk in Kiev, where he had been helping set up a lifestyle center for the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
Surveillance video from Tuesday shows the 77-year-old doctor entering Zamkova Gora, a heavily wooded park in the city center, but not leaving, according to a news release Friday from the church.
