SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Police on Monday took fingerprints voluntarily from male neighbors of Elizabeth Smart to compare with dozens of prints left by visitors in the hours after the 14-year-old girl disappeared and before authorities arrived.

Authorities said they have only recently received results of their initial dusting of the house and want to confirm who was inside on June 5; they also want to take note of any unidentified prints.

Smart's younger sister has told police a man took Elizabeth from their darkened bedroom room at gunpoint. Ed and Lois Smart said they frantically notified neighbors of their missing daughter and a crowd gathered before police arrived.

Five of the eight neighbors sought by police submitted to the fingerprinting, police said Monday. Three of the men were out of town but authorities said they planned to comply when they return.

Family members already have given their fingerprints.

"We are not using this to implicate anybody," Salt Lake City Police Sgt. Fred Louis said. "We just want to verify who was in the home that morning."

A lawyer for Richard Ricci, the ex-convict and Smart family handyman who has been questioned in the girl's disappearance, said Ricci has given blood for a DNA sample. Ricci, 48, did painting and yard work a year ago at the Smart house.

He is being held on an unrelated parole violation. Ricci and his wife say he was at home the night of Smart's disappearance.

Members of the Smart family said Monday they still felt strongly that Elizabeth was alive.

"We still plead with that person or those persons who have Elizabeth, to please give her up," said Dorotha Smart, Elizabeth's grandmother.
