WHAT HAPPENED TO GUS?

As the search continues, experts share their theories on the missing boy

- 

Nearly a month has passed since “shy but adventurous” Gus Lamont was last seen on his family’s remote sheep station in South Australia.

With his distinctive curly blond hair and dressed in a blue Minions top, the four-year-old was playing on a mound of dirt outside his grandparents’ 148,260-acre property at around 5pm. When his grandmother went to call him inside 30 minutes later, she realised he was gone.

At the time of going to print, South Australian Police had renewed their search with a dedicated task force, with officials revealing it’s “one of the largest, most intensive and most protracted searches” ever undertaken in Oz.
