Another night of searching for missing 6-year-old Arian from Germany yielded no results. For the second night in a row, a ‘silent search’ was held, with soldiers looking for the boy as quietly and darkly as possible. The idea is that the child, who has autism and does not speak, may be put off by all the commotion surrounding the hundreds of people who have been looking for him for days. The largest search to date began on Sunday morning.
The boy ran away from his parental home in Elm on Monday evening and has been missing ever since. Hundreds of people have been trying to find him for days. On Saturday a search was conducted in and around the water, but also on land. Traces were found, but the question is whether they were left by Arian. Research is still being conducted into this.
According to his parents, Arian may have gone looking for a ‘great adventure’, according to a message distributed by the police. Arian is a sporty child who can climb well and has a lot of energy, according to his parents. He has autism and doesn’t talk. That may be why he will not respond to people who call him. The new search tactic, which involves searching as quietly as possible, has been coordinated with autism experts.
Everything has been tried to find the child. In addition to the silent search, fireworks were set off and loud music was played, because Arian likes that. Furthermore, balloons and candy were hung on trees in the hope that he would come to them.
Firefighters, civil defense, soldiers and other first responders began the largest search to date on Sunday morning. Eight hundred people will form a one-and-a-half-kilometre-wide human chain with which the entire search area will be searched again over the next ten hours, according to plans. GPS trackers prevent parts from being skipped.
In addition to the human chain, drones, boats and riders are also used. All in all, 1,200 people are involved, authorities say. They say that the enormous commitment shows that hope is not yet lost that Arian will be found.
