No ‘miracle’ as outback search for boy is scaled back
A missing pre -school quest is scaled after the police admit that the child probably died after the police move away from a farm house.
August, known as GUS, disappeared from the sheep station of his family in the middle of Saturday afternoon, Saturday afternoon.
Despite a comprehensive study of the only trace of the four -year -old child, the police, the defense force staff and a large number of volunteers, the family was a small footprint, about 500 meters from the farmhouse.
SA Police Commissioner Ian Parrott told reporters on Friday, “We all hope to have a miracle, this miracle did not happen.”
“This is clearly what seems to be a very tragic conditions set.”
There was no significant evidence that emergency services allowed to focus on the direction of searching, and he admitted that the footprint could be one week before.
“We are sure that we have done everything we can to find GUS in the search area, but we could not find it despite our best efforts, and unfortunately we have to retrieve this search now,” he said.
The police would continue to investigate the disappearance of the child, including the possibility that he might not be lost while playing outside the property, nearly 300 km north of Adelaide.
“But every piece of information and evidence we have discovered so far shows that… Gus wandered from this property and we couldn’t find it, Mr Mr. Parrott said
The senior police spoke to Gus’s family, and they were still likely to be alive and said it was based on an expert advice about the clothes he wore when he disappeared.
Pre -school’s miserable family spoke to young people at the beginning of the week, saying that they were struggling to understand what happened ”.
The adventurous boy was playing in the sand near his family house when he disappeared.
Gus has a long, blonde, curly hair, and the latest gray sun hat, a yellow minion in front, light gray long trousers and a blue t -shirt with boots.
