The mother of Kyron Horman, an Oregon boy whose been missing since 2010, said a recent weekend search for her son was "successful," according to CBS.
Horman's mother, Desiree Young, said a team of volunteers collected information that was handed over to police.
"If he was here, he would say thank you very much," Young said of her son.
The investigation was led by the volunteer group Kyron Horman's World Soldiers, two non-profit search organizations, and 10 search dog teams in Portland. The entire group retraced an area that was searched immediately after Horman's disappearance.
Young mentioned that the items discovered were sent over to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office, who she thanked for continuing the search for her missing son. She did not mention what specifically was found.
"We're not going to find Kyron if we're not searching," Young said.
Horman's disappearance sparked the largest missing person search in Oregon's history after he vanished from Skyline School on June 4, 2010 at the age of 7.
There are no current suspects, but the investigation is surrounding Horman's stepmother, Terri Horman, who was the last person to see the missing boy.
"I refuse, refuse to let Terri win," Young said.
Kaine Horman, the boy's father, filed for divorce from Terri Horman and also sought a restraining order after investigators notified him that his wife attempted to hire someone to kill him, just months before his son's disappearance.
Authorties continue to stress that Terri Horman has not been named a suspect. She has not publicly commented on the case.
"It's been a passion of mine to do as much as I can to keep this case moving forward and to help law enforcement to get some answers and find out what happened on June 4," Young said.
Lt. Steve Alexander of Multnomah County Sheriff's Office confirmed that items were handed over to officials but did not say if they were important to the case.
