WILLIAMSBURG, Va. -- Eight-year-old Zeb Gross was found unharmed Monday afternoon, more than six hours after he was reported missing in Williamsburg. Gross was found in a crawl space under his home, a Williamsburg Fire Department spokesman said.

Earlier, tracking dogs were helping in the searching for Gross, who was reported missing at about 7 a.m. Monday along the 200 block of John Pinckney Lane in Williamsburg.

Gross was reported last seen not wearing a coat. Temperatures in Williamsburg are in the low 30s and the weather feels like it is in the low 20s once wind chill is taken into consideration.
