  1. Is it true the search will resume at 6am for Riley? I cant believe that they could stop looking for him at all

  2. Why are they not continuing the search overnight? That is a disgrace. I hope he is found safe and well. I can’t imagine what his parents are going through :(.

  3. special task force officers will continue searching but they dont want the general public (untrained people) to endanger themselves etc.

  4. I found the level of communication from the police to be woeful – my family live around the corner from his family home and after calling to try and find out what the search pattern would be (after being told about it happening from a friend whilst walking the beach) the best someone could come up with was “keep an eye out”.

    Thankfully the network in the local community passed on more relevant information amongst themselves helping to create a more targeted approach.

    Special task forces are useful but so are numerous sets of eyes and ears, given the local community know the terrain they are a very valuable resources and effective and timely communication may make all the difference.

  5. why wernt tracker dogs brought in straight away to find him and the dogs, he could be found by now. I’m so sick with worry for this little one he must be so scared.

  6. The whole thing just stinks… were is the news? what is happening… how has no one in such a small town not noticed a little boy with Down syndrome and 3 dogs walking around, surely if he was on the beach in the middle of the day someone would have noticed, the town isn’t that big and yes why wasn’t the tracker dogs called straight away? he is 4 years old not like he has just skipped town, give us some NEWS! please
