SA Police return to remote station in search for missing boy Gus Lamont

South Australian police return to Oak Park Station to continue the search for missing four-year-old Gus Lamont as part of ongoing investigation efforts.

South Australian police have resumed their search efforts at Oak Park Station, where four-year-old Gus Lamont disappeared almost five months ago. Officers from Taskforce Horizon, which was established to investigate his case, are focusing their efforts on this remote station in the north-east of South Australia. Gus was last seen at his home near Yunta on September 27, and previous searches around the area have yielded no significant leads about his disappearance.

The investigation has recently taken a new turn, with police identifying a resident of the property as a suspect. However, authorities have clarified that Gus's parents are not being investigated. The police have emphasized the importance of this search for any potential evidence that could shed light on Gus's case, and they are committed to keeping the public informed about the progress of their efforts.

As part of their ongoing investigation, police indicated that they had seized various items, including a vehicle, a motorcycle, and electronic devices from the location. This week’s search is a critical component of the inquiry, and an update on the search activities is expected as developments arise, reinforcing the community's hope for new information regarding the missing boy.
