9 days have passed since 82-year old Emmett Kyzer went missing from his Cottondale home and he has not been seen or heard from since.

Today, news and pictures have been circulated around social media that cadaver dogs have been brought in from Columbus, Mississippi to continue the search.

Kyzer was last seen at his residence on Keenes Mill Road in Cottondale. Family members believe that he would have required assistance to leave because he has been wheelchair bound since a violent attack two years ago and was unable to take more than a few steps on his own.

Authorities have searched for the missing man since being notified of his disappearance but to no avail.

If you would like to join the search for Emmett Kyzer, a Facebook volunteer group has been started by family members hoping to organize a search party on Saturday morning.

Anyone with information on Kyzers disappearance is asked to call the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's office at (205)-464-8600.
