I just saw this and wondered if there would be a thread. Surely you'd notice if you were missing your 6/7 year old?

I wonder/assume some stuff must be being left out to jump to abduction? Leaving the bike is odd but not stranger than someone not reporting the child missing.

So far no parent has actually reported a child missing. So it might be that the member of the public who witnessed this was mistake. Here's hoping...

The bike is one which all the local kids share, and is often left lying around apparently.

Still no report of a missing boy.

I think that the witness saw a family altercation (child ran off or broke curfew, parent understandably agitated) and misread it.

Or maybe there's stuff that's not being publicised by the police.

No more news on this, other than they believe the witness, and no child reported as missing in the UK.

How odd. If a child is missing then I hope he is found.

If convicted, he should be forced to foot the cost of the investigation. There's s difference between an honest mistake/overzealousness, and this.

There is another thread about it somewhere.

Here we are:

I find it interesting that someone suggesting that there wasn't a child at all got quite a 'telling off'.
