Search Continues for Missing 5-Year-Old Boy
A large-scale search continues for 5-year-old Frank Young in and around Red Earth Cree Nation.
“It’s cold and snowy and this is a very young child, so we are very concerned. The Saskatchewan RCMP and partner agencies, together with the local community, continue to tirelessly search for Frank,” says Sgt. Richard Tonge of the Carrot River RCMP. “We are searching in the community, where Frank was last seen yesterday, including a large rural area outside of the community, which includes heavily treed areas as well as bodies of water. Efforts include using everything from all-terrain vehicles and boats to thermal imaging, on-foot grid searches and more.”
An RCMP plane with a thermal camera will perform an aerial search of the area later today.
Door to door inquiries at residences continue to be conducted and Frank has not been located.
Investigation to date does not indicate an abduction has occurred and the criteria for an Amber Alert have not been met.
Frank Young was last seen wearing Paw Patrol rubber boots, green pajamas with dinosaurs on them and a navy blue windbreaker-style jacket.
Police and Frank’s family are concerned for his wellbeing. Anyone with information on Frank Young’s whereabouts should call Carrot River RCMP at 306-768-1200. In an emergency, call 911 immediately.
