What Any County News did
When the sheriff's office first reported Haley missing, Any County News confirmed her case with the office and got her alert out fast on all five of our Facebook pages, TikTok and anycountynews.com, where she stayed pinned at the top until she was found. Any County News owner and reporter Danny cared enough about Haley to put his own money into boosting her alert, so more people in Douglas, Coffee County and the surrounding counties would see it. Her alert was seen thousands of times. Thank you to the Coffee County Sheriff's Office and to everyone who shared.
Earlier report (Oct. 2, 2026), now resolved:
On Oct. 2, the Coffee County Sheriff's Office asked for help finding Haley Marie McElhaney.
