Victor Oquendo reports on the latest developments in the search for Brian Laundrie in the Gabby Petito case.

Laundrie has not yet been charged in connection to Petito’s murder, but a federal grand jury indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Wyoming alleges Brian Laundrie used a Capital One Bank card and someone’s personal identification number to make unauthorized withdrawals or charges worth more than $1,000 during the period in which Petito went missing.
It does not say who the card belonged to.
The reward for information that leads to his arrest has ballooned to more than $100,000.
