NOW: Police are conducting a SEARCH at the home of missing four-year-old August “Gus” Lamont. Upon entering his bedroom, investigators discovered the space filled with numerous teddy bears and soft toys, many of which were said to be Gus’s favourites.
Authorities noted that the discovery underscores the deep bond between Gus and his family, painting a poignant picture of the little boy’s life before his disappearance. The sight of his untouched toys has left officers and relatives deeply moved as the desperate search continues.
While the investigation remains focused on the outback near Yunta where Gus vanished six days ago, police said searching the family home helps build a fuller picture of his routines and the items he may have carried with him.
