Lily and Jack Sullivan: Latest Update as Kids Missing for Over a Week [Video]

It’s been eight days since siblings Lily and Jack Sullivan were reported missing by their mother in rural Canada, with no sightings of the two.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have scoured through dense forest with 160 trained volunteers alongside drones and K9 units, before announcing mid-week that they would “scale back” search efforts, The Guardian reported.

After days of searching around Pictou County where Jack, 4, and Lily, 6, were last seen at home, Sergeant Robert McCamon said confidence was dropping in finding the siblings.

“The likelihood they’re alive right now is very low,” he said during a press conference, The Guardian reported.

Newsweek has reached out to the RCMP via email Saturday for the latest details on the search for the missing pair.

The Context

The latest press release from the RCMP said the children are believed to have wandered away from their home on Gairloch Road in Lansdown Station, Pictou County.
