SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The father of missing teenager Elizabeth Smart was given a polygraph test, police said Monday.
“(Edward Smart) did submit to a polygraph yesterday and that’s being reviewed by the FBI,” said Salt Lake City Police Capt. Scott Atkinson.
Police won’t say why they asked Smart to take a the test.
”It’s not uncommon” for police to give such tests to parents, or to do several interviews, said Salt Lake City Detective Jay Rhodes.
Monday was the sixth day of the search for 14-year-old Elizabeth, who police said was abducted from her home. Authorities are no closer to finding the teen and say they are baffled by the case that is quickly growing cold.
