Boy in Viral Photo Missing After Family's SUV Plunges Off Cliff.
BALDWIN: The little boy in this photo, shared all around the world, is now feared dead after his families' SUV plunged off a California cliff along a coastal California highway. Devonte Hart was holding up a signed that read "free hugs" in the 2014 protest shortly after a Ferguson, Missouri, grand jury refused to indict a police officer in connection with the death of teenager, Michael Brown. The photo of Devonte hugging a Portland police officer touched millions of hearts across the country. CNN's Miguel Marquez is with me for more on this crash. Miguel, what happened?</s>MIGUEL MARQUEZ, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Look, this is a really bizarre and utterly sad story. Five members of the Hart family are confirmed dead. Three others, Devonte, that then-12-year-old, now 16, his sisters, Hannah, Sierra, 16 and 12 years old, they are still missing, possibly dead, though. It's tough for police to hold out hope on this one. Their SUV was discovered Monday. It had gone over the edge of the Pacific Coast Highway, this gorgeous stretch of road along the Pacific coast. Very, very rough. It's very steep cliffs in that area. About 100 feet down, it was found, off the roadway. Police say there was no indication of intentionality or foul play. They found no braking or skidding either, though. They're not sure what happened with this car. They're trying to get divers into the ocean there. It's very tough to do. Not been able to do that. Still have about a dozen people have been combing the area along the rough rocky coast there. Devonte came to national attention when he was 12 years old at that protest in Portland, Oregon. The police officer, the Portland police officer, Sergeant Bret Barnum, he spoke about that moment that went viral.</s>SGT. BRET BARNUM, PORTLAND POLICE DEPARTMENT: As I sat there with a colleague of mine, we noticed Devonte, you know, 10 or 15 feet away from us. He would turn periodically toward us. I noticed he was crying. And looked at my colleague, Brian, and said, is that kid crying? We kind of went from there. And I said I'm going to call him over and do what I do, as not a police officer, but just a human being.</s>UNIDENTIFIED CNN ANCHOR: And what was his reaction, Devonte's reaction when you called him over?</s>BARNUM: He was a little hesitant at first. He mustered up the courage and energy to come over and talk with me. At that point, it kind of broke the ice a little bit. We talked about life. We talked about travel, summer vacations. We talked about -- he enjoys art. And we broke down those barriers and we talked about it, just as a person to a person.</s>MARQUEZ: They were about 500 miles away from their home in Woodlawn, Washington, a place called West Port, California, just north of there. Another bizarre twist is in this whole story is that Child Protective Services in Washington State had been out to the house last Friday and Monday and Tuesday --
