Missing Madeleine McCann FOUND? English speaking girl called 'Maria' discovered in Rome

Portuguese search wells in case of missing Madeleine McCann.

(CNN)Portuguese authorities have conducted searches in three wells, according to witnesses, near where British toddler Madeleine McCann disappeared 13 years ago.

A local law enforcement source confirmed to CNN the searches last Thursday were related to the investigation into the disappearance of McCann, but as far as the source knew, no new information was discovered.
The Portuguese Judicial Police (PJ), officers from the National Guard (GNR) as well as at least one diver from the fire department were involved, witnesses in the village of Budens, near Praia da Luz, told CNN.
McCann was 3 years old when she went missing in 2007 while vacationing with her family in Praia da Luz. Prosecutors in Germany said recently they have evidence that may link a man there to the case, the first major movement in the long-running and prominent case after years of little progress.

The wells are about 15 minutes away from Praia da Luz, on a road that leads up to a semi-secluded beach popular among foreigners, especially among those who travel in camper vans.
The suspect in McCann's disappearance had lived in Portugal's Algarve region from 1995 to 2007, and also resided in a house in Praia de Luz, according to the German prosecutor's office in Braunschweig.
Prosecutors last month said they have evidence that the man, now jailed in Germany for another crime, killed McCann, but not enough to charge him.

Madeleine McCann FOUND? English-speaking girl called 'Maria' discovered in Rome.
A HOMELESS teenager in Rome has received attention from across the globe with many people speculating that she is Madeleine McCann because of her appearance and her ability to speak English.

The girl has caught the attention of the authorities because of her politeness and her lack of Italian.

Internet campaigners think the girl could be one of several missing people, including Madeleine McCann who disappeared in 2007, and think she bears a striking resemblance to her.

The teenager has been walking around with old clothes on, no belongings and has not accepted cash from locals.
Photos have been shared of the teenager online in a hope that she can be reunited with her family for Christmas.

Madeleine vanished from Praia da Luz holiday resort in Portugal in May 2007 at the age of three and authorities are still trying to understand what happened to her.

The Italian police have tried to identify the girl, who is sleeping rough on the streets with no passport or ID.
“Madeleine had a distinctive mark on her eye and it would be easy to tell if it was her by that identification.”

Campaign group Houston's Voice For The Missing wrote on Facebook: "This girl needs help. I have been in constant contact with everyone from NCMEC, Rome police, locals journalist, the embassy, locals and anyone else I could think of.

"Police refuse to identify her. I found a local willing to go out to her then call me on face time so maybe I get get something out of her. But we will see.”

She has also been linked to a number of other missing persons cases, including Amanda Adlai, who was abducted in Michigan in 2008, and Maria-Brigitte Helmsman, who disappeared from Germany in 2008.
