$1 million reward offered for information that leads to the return of Cleo Smith
Premier Mark McGowan has announced a reward of $1 million from the Western Australian government for information that leads to the recovery of missing four-year-old girl Cleo Smith.
It comes as police say they now believe she was abducted.
Cleo has been missing for six days after disappearing without a trace from her family’s tent at the Blowholes campsite north of Carnarvon.
“I just urge anyone who has any knowledge of the location of Cleo please provide that information to police,” the Premier said.
Deputy Commissioner of Police Col Blanch said every possible resource was being thrown into finding Cleo.
“Her disappearance strikes at the heart of West Australians,” he said.
“And I’m here today to provide assurances to the community that everything that can be done, is being done.”
Earlier on Thursday her mother Ellie Smith took to Instagram, posting a photo of Cleo holding an icecream with the caption “my sweet girl come home to me”.
