A large-scale search operation is currently in progress for an individual named Andy, whose surname remains undisclosed.
Andy was part of a group of 15 campers at the Murray-Sunset National Park located in Victoria’s north-west region.
Yesterday, around 11 a.m., he set off alone from the Shearers Quarters camping site to trek the 8km Millewa South Bore Track heading toward the South Australian border.
Unfortunately, since his departure, Andy has not been sighted.
The search effort involves a coordinated team including police, the Air Wing, the Dog Squad, the Mounted Branch, Search and Rescue Squad officers, and the State Emergency Service (SES), all working diligently to locate Andy.
They’re worried as he has limited hiking experience and has been gone for more than 24 hours.
He is of Asian appearance and 173cm tall with a slim build.
He was wearing a black hooded jumper, grey trackpants, black steel-cap boots and was carrying a black backpack.
