[Gromit]

Hope this is a good development.

[Mick-Talbot]

Let's hope so.

[Baldric]

Let's hope they have the right person!

[Smowball]

Oh. Lets just hope she is still alive.

[chaptazbru]

Fingers tightly crossed.

[mccfluff]

i hope she is ok

[petal54]

is it me or is this sort of 'nastyness' more common of late?

[B00]

Every parents worst nightmare.

(I wouldn't let mine play out at her friends 2 doors away tonight- daft or what?)

'We knew he was in the area'


I don't like the sound of that

[B00]

dont think these cases are more prolific no petal. Just more high profile when they do happen.

[VictorMildew]

Pray God she's found safe and well.

[sandyRoe]

I think this type of crime is very rare. Hope the little girl is recovered safe and well.

[emmie]

i hope so too.

[gina32]

i hope to god that she is found safe and well, but what was a 5 year old doing out at 7.20 anyway???

[factor-fiction]

Is it near where you live, desktop?

[Eve]

I hope it leads to her being found safe and well. Sounds like they knew who they were looking for and they were known to the parents (so maybe why she got in the car willingly).

I used to live around that way and it is a very quiet area. It must be a nightmare for the search though.

[Ann]

It doesn't sound good, police are searching the river bank, sadly I think they know more than they are letting on. Poor little April, we pray she is found safely ...........

[Answerprancer]

I normally switch off from these types of news stories but I've been listening to this one. I really hope she's just cuddled up somewhere a bit cold and frightened but otherwise ok. I fear the worst though :-(

[sherrardk]

The policeman who is on Sky news keeps saying something like 'we are treating this as though April is still alive' - sounds ominous, very worrying for the family :(

[Ann]

He was "known to the family but not a relative" update
