FLAGSTAFF, AZ - The search continues for a missing boy near Jacob Lake who was last seen two days ago. 
 
 The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office received a call on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. about a missing 5-year-old boy, Jerold Williams, at a campsite 12 miles south of Jacob Lake. 
 
 Since receiving that call, about 350 people have been looking for the boy, including a Black Hawk from the national guard. 
 
 The biggest obstacle in the search for the boy are weather conditions that have turned the ground into mud. 
 
 When CCSO arrived on the scene on Thursday, they spoke to the child’s mother who identified her son as Jerold Joseph Williams. 
 
 The mother said she and her son, along with 20 friends and family members, were camping in the area. 
 
 At 1:30 p.m. that day, the mother of the boy and Jerold were 200 yards from the campsite when the boy began chasing grasshoppers. 
 
 CCSO said the mother lost sight of her son, and members of the camping site began searching for the boy. 
 
 Officials from multiple agencies, including two Air Force helicopters searched overnight for the boy. 
 
 Jerold is 3’6”, 35 pounds, with brown eyes and very short brown hair. He was last seen wearing a grey/tan shirt and a pair of blue jeans. 
 
 If you have any information regarding this incident contact CCSO. 
 
 Volunteers interested in helping in the search can contact CCSO. CCSO told ABC15 that those with ATVs, horses or special skills are encouraged to contact officials as well. 

 Over the course of five days, the Coconino County Sheriff's Office estimates, over 535 volunteers came out to look for the lost tot but their hopes were all dashed when his body was discovered Monday evening, according to spokesman Gerry Blair. 
 
 "A member of our search team did find a body of a child," Blair said. "We have not officially identified the child but we believe it is Jerold Williams." 
 
 The boy and his family are from nearby Colorado City, where many volunteers reacted quickly to the search, officials said. 
 
 Over 20 different agencies provided support for the search efforts including a group of Air Force Pararescuers who used thermal imaging during night searches. 
 
 A cause of death was not immediately disclosed.

 JACOB LAKE, Ariz. (AP) — The body of a 5-year-old Arizona boy was found Monday after he went missing from a campsite north of the Grand Canyon last week, authorities said. 
 
 No other details were immediately released by the Coconino County Sheriff's Office, which said Jerold Joseph Williams had been found dead. 
 
 "We don't have positive identification yet, but we do believe that this is the body of the missing child," said sheriff's office spokesman Gerry Blair. 
 
 He said the body likely would be taken to the county medical examiner's office in Flagstaff, more than three hours away, where authorities would check dental records and fingerprints. 
 
 Several hundred searchers spent five days looking for the boy in rugged terrain after he wandered off from the campsite Thursday while chasing grasshoppers. 
 
 The Colorado City boy was with a group of about 20 people when he went missing about 12 miles south of Jacob Lake in Kaibab National Forest. 
 
 The search was aided by military helicopters equipped with night vision equipment, ground crews with dogs and ATVs, and numerous volunteers from Jerald's hometown. 
 
 Some volunteers walked shoulder-to-shoulder through thick vegetation in sometimes heavy rain Monday in hopes of finding clues. 
 
 Authorities said earlier that there were no signs of an abduction or foul play and noted that the boy's parents were devastated by the disappearance and remained involved throughout the search.

 UPDATE: CANCELLATION of Missing Person David Pierce: We have just re
– The search for a missing 5-year-old boy in Arizona has come to a tragic end. The Coconino County Sheriff's Office has confirmed on Facebook that the body of Jerold Joseph Williams was found last night in Kaibab National Forest, where he disappeared while camping last Thursday. Police tell NBC News Jerold was at most 200 yards from a campsite the boy and his parents were sharing with a 20-strong group of friends and relatives when he escaped his mother's sight. A previous report from ABC15 suggests his mother was with him at the time, and that he vanished from her view as he started to chase grasshoppers. More than 500 volunteers searched the rugged terrain for the missing boy over a five-day span alongside military helicopters carrying night vision equipment and crews with dogs and ATVs, reports ABC15. The AP describes volunteers trudging shoulder-to-shoulder through thick vegetation in the pouring rain yesterday in search of Jerold, whose body was found by a member of the search team. A sheriff's rep last night said a positive ID would need to be made using dental records and fingerprints. A cause of death has not been released; officials previously said there was no indication of foul play.
