Police Say Suspect Has Been Identified

According to a report by IB Times Australia, a suspect has already been identified by authorities.

Det. Supt. Fielke has made it clear that suspect is not a parent of the missing boy. However, he refused to reveal any details, including who he is and why he is considered a suspect.

However, he did reveal that a person from Oak Park Station, where the four-year-old is from, has refused to cooperate with authorities in their investigation.

"As a result of these inconsistencies, and investigations into them, a person who resides at Oak Park Station has withdrawn their support for the police and is no longer co-operating with us," he said.
