Authorities in the Denver area continue their search for Jessica Ridgeway, 10, who went missing Friday.

Westminster spokesman Trevor Matarasso said Witt Elementary, where Jessica attended, will be on lockout status as the investigation continues. That means parents can come and pick up their kids if they show identification, and children are not allowed to play outdoors. Police requested the lockout because of police activity around the school.

More than 600 calls have come in related to Jessica's disappearance. Residents are encouraged to keep calling in possible sightings, and continue to spread photos of Jessica on social media. Officers are treating this as an abduction.

At this point the parents have been ruled out as suspects.
