A 5 yr old girls has gone missing in Wales.

She was seen getting into a van which no one since recognises.

Police believe it is an abduction .

[None of the above]

Terribly worrying news.
Every parent's nightmare.

Perhaps the Mod team might stick this thread on the homepage with a picture of her to help get the message out?
Pictures of the little girl from the site link added below so people can have a look an keep their eyes open. A good portion of the UK is within a few hours drive so everyone have a look at the pictures.

Hopefully she will be found unharmed soon.

It sounds like she might have known the person.

Not really then we would know who that person was

Well, maybe they do know and don't know they know.
I'm just saying that it's odd- if true- that she obligingly got into the car, that's all.

Maybe she knew the person, maybe she didn't, but 5 year olds can be very easily influenced and persuaded if they don't feel they are in danger. Sometimes it doesn't take more than a few friendly smiles or lies (such as, "Hey, so and so - your mom wants me to bring you home now" etc) to convince them that it's okay to get in, even if they don't know the person.  
Hopefully she'll be returned to her parents very very soon, poor thing.

CNN reports an arrest.

Horrible indeed.  Just like so many of these cases... I honestly don't care if they never catch the person, but let those kids be safe and get home.

Arrest charge is upgraded to suspicion of murder.

I hope they find her...somehow.....for the sake of her family  

[wolfknight]

I pray she is alive and well.

It sounds like they found biological evidence of murder...probably in his vehicle.
I don't think they would have upgraded the charge-even though it's been four days, if they weren't reasonably certain that there was a death.

It looks that way as a murder arrest has been made.

"The dynamics of the search have now changed and due to the passage of time and the developments within the investigation, it is no longer appropriate for us to expect untrained members of the public to continue the search."
