Search continues for missing boy in Crowsnest Pass

Police, Search and Rescue and conservation officers in Alberta are still searching for a five-year-old boy who disappeared near a campground on Sunday, Sept. 21.

Police said Darius Macdougall was reported missing around 11:30 a.m. and was last seen walking with family near the Island lake Campground.

The campground is around the BC/Alberta border between Sparwood and Crowsnest Lake.

He is described as being four-feet tall with short brown hair and he was last seen wearing a blue/grey hoodie and sweat pants.

Police said he has a medical issue which may prevent him from responding to others.

Search and Rescue teams from both Alberta and B.C. have responded and are asking people to avoid the area so thermal imaging drones and search dogs can canvas the area without distraction.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Crowsnest Pass RCMP at 403-562-2866.
