Search for Missing Nova Scotia Siblings Enters Sixth Day

RCMP continue intensive efforts with interprovincial teams and aerial units, as family presses for broader search area.

Overview

  • Six-year-old Lily Sullivan and four-year-old Jack Sullivan were last seen on May 2 near their home on Gairloch Road in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia.
  • Over 140 to 160 volunteers, including teams from New Brunswick, are participating daily in the search using drones, helicopters, and canine units.
  • The RCMP have ruled out abduction, stating the children likely wandered away, and are pursuing all investigative leads.
  • The children’s stepfather has called for search efforts to expand to provincial borders and airports, though no evidence of abduction has emerged.
  • Search challenges include dense forest terrain and the children’s potential undiagnosed autism, which may influence their behavior and movement.
