The heartbroken parents of Gus Lamont, a four-year-old boy who vanished from his family’s Oak Valley Station home in South Australia’s outback, are once again reaching out to the public for help. Almost five months have passed since his mysterious disappearance on September 27, and yet, no clues have emerged.
In a fervent appeal for information, Gus’s parents, Josh and Jess Lamont, have released a new photo and video of their son, hoping to jog the memory of anyone who might know something. They are urging anyone with even the slightest bit of information to step forward.
“Our lives have been shattered, and every moment without him is unbearable,” they expressed in a heartfelt statement distributed by South Australia Police. This statement underscores the depth of their anguish and the relentless hope that someone, somewhere, holds the key to solving this heart-wrenching mystery.
“We are united in our search for answers about what happened to our little boy, Gus, who means everything to us,” they continued. The Lamonts are reaching out to the community with a plea: “We know someone out there may have information. If someone knows what happened, we are pleading with that person—or anyone who may have seen or heard anything—to please come forward.”
“We are united in our search for answers about what happened to our little boy, Gus, who means everything to us… we know someone out there may have information. If someone knows what happened, we are pleading with that person—or anyone who may have seen or heard anything—to please come forward.
“Even the smallest detail could give us the answers we so desperately need.”
Earlier this month SA Police declared Gus’ disappearance as a major crime, saying police did not believe Gus had simply wandered from the property.
The new photo released of Gus shows the four-year-old in the back of the car next to a cattle dog.
He is wearing a navy shirt with a graphic design on the front, and long navy pants.
A 10-second video shows Gus riding on a child’s bicycle somewhere on the property.
