Ground and air search efforts are planned for tomorrow (May 17) as the missing persons investigation into the disappearance of Lilly and Jack Sullivan continues.
Searchers from ground search and rescue teams, the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association, and the RCMP will focus on specific areas around Gairloch Rd. in an effort to locate Lilly and Jack and advance the investigation.
This search follows a large-scale air and ground search of 5.5 square kilometres of heavily wooded, rural terrain in the Gairloch Rd. area that began on May 2. On May 7, the search was scaled back in favour of more specific searches.
On May 8 and 9, the RCMP’s Underwater Recovery Team (URT) scoured bodies of water around Lansdowne Station; URT’s two-day operation did not uncover evidence.
We continue to ask that the public avoid the search area to allow trained searchers to do their work.
