UPDATE: Police search for missing child in Westcrest Park area

6:14 PM: Thanks for the tips. Guardian One has been in the Westcrest Park area for a bit, but we don’t yet know what the search is for. Will update if/when we find out.

6:33 PM: Guardian One says via Twitter that they are helping police look for a missing child, described as wearing orange shorts, missing near 4th and Cambridge.

7:16 PM: SPD has yet to say anything about the search but someone just texted us to say it was her neighbor’s child and that he has been located.

    They’re looking for a white male 5 11 wearing orange and blue. Wonder what he did.

          SPD usually tweets about missing people of all ages but has not mentioned this. I hope that is good news but we have nothing confirmed.

    That explains why they flew directly over us, obviously looking at us and the kids playing outside. Hope they find him!

    I live right by 4th and cambridge and saw the massive police response and how the police were walking and driving past our house. This was more than a lost kid. There were looking for someone on the run and acted like the person was armed or at leadt dangerous.  Will be interested to hear the full story if we get it. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
