It's been more than two weeks since Brandon Crisp left his Barrie home following a fight with his parents over his Xbox.
Since that time police, family members, and volunteers have searched the surrounding area tirelessly, hoping for some sign of the 15-year-old. But aside from his abandoned bike, and the words of a witness who saw him a few kilometres from home on October 13, the day he went missing, there's been no trace of Brandon.
On Tuesday night authorities decided to suspend their ground search for him, pending any further tips about his whereabouts. Barrie police Sgt. Dave Goodbrand said investigators were still looking into information from dozens of different sources, and added he hoped one of the tips would provide new information in the case. Unfortunately, snowfall in the area may make further searching even more difficult, as any evidence of the teen could be concealed.
Police began searching the Shanty Bay area 10 days ago, thinking he may have ended up there, but to no avail. Brandon's parents, Steve and Angelika Crisp, say they argued with the teen over the amount of time he spent playing the Xbox game Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It wasn't long after that he left the house upset.
Among the leads investigators were looking into, the possibility Brandon may have tried to meet up with someone he met while playing the game online.
On Wednesday at 6pm family and friends are holding an evening vigil for the teen in Shanty Bay, at the last spot Brandon was seen.
A website (http://www.whereisbrandoncrisp.tk/) has been set up here for tips and information in the case.
The case has also hit the America's Most Wanted website's missing children section. See it here (http://www.amw.com/missing_children/brief.cfm?id=60433).

I wonder what really happened..
What his dad's really like
And how it built up to this point
