Not Another Madeleine McCann
“MANY of us had begun to fear the worst, especially in the light of Madeleine McCann.”
The words of “butcher” Shaun who had been looking for his five-year-old son Alex.
The Express helps in the Hunt for Shaun and finds him hiding beneath his bed. Incredibly, the Express find time to take a picture of Shaun in hiding mode and delivers it to its readers by way of a guide: “If you child goes missing, look here.”
Readers learn that 11 people have searched Alex’s bedroom, making us wonder how large the room is. Teenagers were looking for him by the waterfront. Neighbours were frantic.
A police helicopter flew around Saltash for an hour. Twelve officers are on the look out for Alex.
And then, with the help of a police dog team, he is found.
Says Ms Olver: “I’m so grateful for everyone who helped us. Their support was overwhelming and we will never forget it.”
That’s one child saved. But the work is never done…
