1. Missing two-year old sparks massive search – with a happy ending.
A massive search using the Air Wing, Search and Rescue and the Dog Squad for a two-year old girl was underway last night.
The two-year old girl and her dog wandered off from the family home on Bloomfield Road in Crossover, near Warrugal in Victoria at 7:30pm.
Leading Senior Constable Lee Thomson pleaded with the public to be on the lookout.
“She’s very young and because of the proximity to a major road with high speeds we are very concerned for her safety,” she said.
The girl was last seen wearing a T-shirt and nappy and was with a black dog, the family pet.
Around 2am this morning Victorian Police announced that the little girl had been located safe and well – and that her faithful dog had been with her through the whole ordeal saying that it “Feels like Christmas got here early.”
Online news watchers commended the police and SES for a job well done.
“Its 2.30 am and look at how many folks are awake following to make sure she was found safe ! Warms the cockles of me heart” wrote one.
