The police and public prosecutor's office have announced a press conference for the afternoon at which further details about the current status of the proceedings are expected.

Investigators believe the boy may have been picked up by an adult after he left his home on Schweriner Street at 10:50 a.m. on October 10th. A witness clipping showing a pond with a small fire could also be important to the investigation. Authorities are calling on anyone who may have seen anything suspicious to come forward.
