YEEHAW JUNCTION, Fla. Lee County deputies were seen Wednesday combing the woods off Highway 60 near Yeehaw Junction, witnesses said. The circumstances of their presence is currently unclear. The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office confirmed they were contacted by the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. This is the same area where deputies conducted searches last summer for 9-year-old Diana Alvarez, who has been missing since May 2016. Jorge Guerrero-Torres, who was named in the AMBER Alert for Alvarez, was heading to Okeechobee, then north toward Yeehaw Junction shortly after the girl went missing, according to court documents. He eventually tossed his cell phone in an apartment complex in Orlando, where it was later found by a maintenance worker. Guerrero-Torres admitted to deputies last week that he took obscene pictures of Alvarez on his phone and touched her inappropriately on a weekly basis in 2015 while he was living in her San Carlos Park home, court documents show. No further information is immediately available.
