LANSDOWNE STATION - Ground search teams and an RCMP aerial drone joined the search Friday for two young children who are believed to have wandered from a home in rural northeastern Nova Scotia earlier in the day.
The Mounties say six-year-old Lily Sullivan and four-year-old Jack Sullivan were last seen around 10 a.m. in the community of Lansdowne Station.
Lily Sullivan is described as having shoulder-length, light brown hair with bangs, and might be wearing a pink sweater, pink pants and pink boots.
Jack Sullivan has short, blond hair and is wearing blue dinosaur boots.聽
A vulnerable missing persons alert was transmitted across Pictou County after police were alerted to their disappearance.
RCMP Cpl. Carlie McCann says residents are being asked to use social media to raise awareness about the search.
But the police force issued a statement later in the day saying members of the public should avoid the Gairloch Road area to allow trained searchers to do their work.
"There is a multi-agency response currently on the ground in Pictou County," the Mounties said in the statement.聽
"Other resources and teams include the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association (CASARA), Department of Natural Resources Air Services and RCMP police dogs." They said the children's family has been kept updated on the search efforts.
