• Tracking dogs followed Fabian Lange’s scent from Güstrow’s bus station to a stop near Zehna and into a forest by Groß Breesen before losing the trail.
• Officers are reviewing bus CCTV and other video, canvassing the boy’s neighborhood and checking tips while maintaining there are no indications of a crime.
