Search for Missing Nova Scotia Siblings Scaled Back After Six Days

RCMP reduce large-scale operations, citing low survival odds, while focusing on targeted investigative efforts.

Overview

  • Lily Sullivan, 6, and Jack Sullivan, 4, were last seen on May 2 near their rural home in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia.
  • After six days of extensive searches involving drones, helicopters, and over 160 searchers daily, RCMP announced a shift to focused investigatory efforts on May 8.
  • Authorities state the likelihood of the children surviving in the dense, wooded terrain is very low due to weather and time elapsed.
  • Major Crime investigators continue to treat the case as potentially suspicious, revisiting key search areas and considering the use of cadaver dogs.
  • Community leaders and family members urge restraint against social media speculation, with the children’s stepfather requesting a polygraph to clear any suspicion.
