NYPD has released a sketch of the missing 11-year-old Brownsville boy and a photo of his mother.

The search for Jacob Pritchett entered its fourth day on Saturday.

Police made their way back to Howard Avenue to find new clues in their investigation, but they found no sign of where he may be.

Sources told News 12 that blood was found on the fridge in the apartment where the 11-year-old lived with just his mother.

It was only the end of September when an ACS case was opened against her.

Even after officers were spotted searching through the dumpsters behind the building, police say Jacob, who has autism, still had not been found as of Saturday night.

The apartment was still sealed off with a notice that is typically used when someone has been found dead.

Sources told News 12 that Jacob's mother is currently being evaluated at a local hospital after police took her away.
