Authorities are searching for a 13-year-old boy who disappeared from his father's home during a court-ordered visitation over Thanksgiving in southwestern Colorado.

Dylan Redwine was reported missing Monday by his father, Mark, who said he left the house in Vallecito, La Plata County about 7:30 a.m. and returned a few hours later to find his son gone, NBC station KUSA of Denver reported on its website.

Dan Bender, La Plata County Sheriff's Department spokesman, said authorities had "few clues to work from. We have to consider everything from foul play to a runaway."
