I've seen it on social media, not so much in my press. Bless him.

Actually felt sick reading this on Twitter. Poor family. Absolute nightmare fuel.

Had a similar conversation with my DH before who assumed that every missing person would feature in the national news. Unfortunately not. When you look at the stats it’s shocking and so scary.
Approx 575 children are reported missing every day in the UK. Approx 80% are found within 24 hours. Roughly 1500 children are currently missing (for more than 28 days) and unresolved.

Praying for the family and a quick safe return.

I heard about it on Radio 2 earlier, and youve posted a bbc news link?
