Search on for Mother who hid her Kids in a pit on Ft. Lauderdale Beach

"Police this afternoon continue to search for a mother and the young daughter she allegedly abducted from a foster home in Pennsylvania and said they think the two are still in Broward.

Authorities are looking for Tammy Kong-Kham, 35, and her daughter, Kimberly, 8, who was abducted in Oct. Police say Kongkham also took an older daughter, 10-year-old Kelley, from the foster home, but that child has been found safe in Fort Lauderdale."

"For two weeks, the mother and young girls lived on coconuts, water and food scavenged from trash bins, hiding in a pit dug in the sand beneath a Fort Lauderdale beach playground, according to police.

They could hear other children running and laughing above them, but the two girls kept still — officials say their mother demanded they stay in the damp, ant-infested hole for days at a time."
