Investigators in the case of Kristin Smart, the college student missing since 1996, served a search warrant at the home of the prime suspect's father, officials said Monday.
The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office on Monday announced it served a search warrant at the Arroyo Grande home of Ruben Flores, the father of Paul Flores, who has been the prime suspect in the case for years.

The warrant was served at 7:30 a.m. and the search could take up to two days to complete, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office said.
