A renewed search for missing toddler Ayla Reynolds was launched on Saturday, officials said.

The girl vanished from her father's home in Waterville, Maine, in December.?Ayla was aged 20 months old at the time.

Police are treating her disappearance as a crime, but no one has been charged.


Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Steve McCausland said in a statement released Saturday that?the estimated 100 searchers included volunteers, firefighters and game wardens.

They were being aided by six tracking dogs, he added.

Seven-weeks after an infant went missing while in her father's care, police in Maine have resumed their underwater search for Baby Ayla. NBC's Michelle Franzen reports.

McCausland also asked people in?greater Kennebec County "to keep an eye on their own property for any signs that could be related to the case, now that the snow has melted."

Ayla was living with her father, Justin DiPietro, when she disappeared. She?was reported missing on Dec. 17 when her father said he found her bed empty.

TODAY legal correspondent Savannah Guthrie talks about the developments in the case of missing Maine toddler Ayla Reynolds and why police waited several weeks until revealing discovery of blood.

Earlier this month, McCausland told The Associated Press that investigators had received more than 970 leads.

Detectives were continuing to conduct interviews and?the crime lab is providing new evidence almost daily, he said.

Trista Reynolds, the mom of missing Maine toddler Ayla, tells TODAY's Matt Lauer she's still suspicious of the baby's father for his sudden interest in the case.

NBC News, msnbc.com staff and The Associated Press?contributed to this report.
