Police to Return for Fourth Search at Oak Park for Missing Gus Lamont

Police report no evidence of foul play following exhaustive searches that yielded no trace.

Overview

  • Commissioner Grant Stevens said investigators will go back to the remote Yunta property based on further data analysis and expert advice.
  • Search teams are processing drone-collected landscape data through IT systems to guide the next targeted sweep.
  • More than 60,000 hectares have been examined with police, SES volunteers, ADF personnel, drones and infrared technology.
  • Last week, officers drained about 3.2 million litres from a dam and divers cleared weed beds in two dams but found nothing significant.
  • The only confirmed clue remains a single footprint found 500m from the homestead, and peer reviews of the operation noted improvements without criticizing the overall effort.
