BELLEFONTE, Pa. --A $5,000 reward now offered in the case of missing Centre County District Attorney Ray Gricar has done nothing to generate information on his disappearance.

Gricar, the lead prosecutor in Centre County since 1985, was reported missing one week ago by his girlfriend, whom he last spoke to about 11:30 a.m. last Friday.

During that telephone conversation, Gricar told Patty Fornicola, who also works in his office, that he would not be in for work that day. He was spotted in Lewisburg, Union County, about 45 miles away, on Saturday around noon at an antique shop.

Yesterday, Bellefonte Police Chief Duane Dixon announced at a news conference that another woman has come forward claiming she also saw Gricar in Lewisburg about an hour later. Investigators were still questioning her to verify the sighting.

State police found the red and white Mini Cooper Gricar was driving parked in a dirt lot near the antiques shop and the Susquehanna River Saturday evening. His cell phone was inside the locked car, and there was no evidence of foul play. Police lifted five fingerprints out of the car, Dixon said, and the analysis of those is being handled by state police in Harrisburg.

Investigators are still treating Gricar's disappearance as a missing-persons case, Dixon said. They have not eliminated any possibilities, including that he could have been the victim of a crime; that he left of his own volition; or that he may have committed suicide.

Earlier this week, investigators subpoenaed Gricar's medical records. Though police have not gone through them thoroughly, Dixon said there is no evidence Gricar was ever treated for depression.

Gricar's brother, Roy, went missing for five days in May 1996. His body was found in the Great Miami River in central Ohio, and his death was ruled suicide by drowning.

Police have said none of Gricar's clothing or luggage is missing from the home he shared with Fornicola. They did say, however, they have not located the laptop computer Gricar used for work.

Dixon believes Gricar would still be carrying his wallet, keys and sunglasses.

The FBI was asked to help in the investigation earlier this week, and agents have been checking Gricar's phone records and tracking any use of credit or bank cards. There has been no activity on those, Dixon said.

On Sunday, state police used a bloodhound to try to pick up Gricar's scent from his car, but they had no luck.

"The handler said the way the dog acted, it could have indicated [Gricar] got into another car," Dixon said. But, he continued, "We have no evidence he was planning to meet anyone in Lewisburg."

Throughout the week, the state police have used a helicopter to search the banks of the Susquehanna River, and volunteer fire companies have used boats to run up and down. Investigators have talked about sending divers into the river, but that has not yet been done.

Dixon spent much of the news conference trying to dispel rumors that have sprung up around the case, which has attracted national media attention.

Gricar's family also attended the news conference, and Fornicola spoke briefly.

"We, the family, are continuing to treat this as a missing-persons case," she said.

She then asked that the news media do the same.

When asked how long the search will last, Dixon responded, "As far as I'm concerned, until it comes to a resolution."
