Sgt. John Lyons said one of the people who came forward was a woman who
had had a vision suggesting that Hodge's vehicle was in the Otonabee
River, close to Lakefield.
He pointed out that investigators would never turn away any tips from anyone, and the woman's statement was neither unreasonable nor outlandish.
"You're never averse to listening to anyone, or following any lead," Lyons said.
The woman pointed investigators to an area where they were already searching, he said. Hodge's vehicle was found just north of the dam near Trent University.
The woman has helped police before, during a two-year investigation into the disappearance of 51-year-old Wayne Kelly.
Kelly, 51, went missing in 2002. His body was discovered in 2004 in a heavily wooded area off Johnstone Dr.
Lyons said the woman had had a vision that pointed investigators back to the Johnstone Dr. area, despite the fact that they'd previously searched there before and found nothing.
