Shocking news about Madeleine McCann: Police received a report from the family, mobilized 20 body-searching dogs back to the resort — their reaction when approaching room 5A stunned the entire abandoned warehouse investigation team
In a jaw-dropping twist to the world’s most infamous missing child case, police in Portugal have reportedly mobilized 20 highly trained cadaver dogs back to the Ocean Club resort, following a confidential tip-off from the McCann family themselves.
The dogs, flown in from specialist units across Europe, were unleashed to sweep every corner of the once-bustling holiday complex — but it was their reaction upon reaching Apartment 5A, the very room where Madeleine disappeared in 2007, that has sent investigators into shock.
“The animals froze, barked uncontrollably, and scratched at the entrance in a way none of us expected,” said one stunned member of the warehouse evidence team, who was present during the re-examination.
The dramatic behavior sparked immediate panic among officers, leading them to call in forensic experts and dig teams to re-open the sealed apartment and nearby storage areas.
Witnesses at the scene describe investigators “visibly shaken,” some reportedly stepping back in silence as the dogs persisted at a single spot by the doorway.
This comes just weeks after new satellite images and recovered call records already reignited hope that the case could be cracked after 18 long years. The McCann family, who have never stopped searching, are said to be “in tears” after hearing of the dogs’ alarming reaction.
Police have refused to confirm what — if anything — was found inside. However, insiders warn that the new lead could prove to be the most explosive development in the case since 2007.
“Something about Room 5A still holds the truth,” one investigator whispered. “And now the dogs may have just pointed us straight to it.”
