00:00 We have today reinforced our resources searching for that little boy.
00:05 We have been able to secure additional support from colleagues in local regions and from national police resources.
00:14 We are using specialist divers within the River Soar and we continue to use the helicopter and aerial technology to try and locate the little boy.
00:25 Our priority for Leicestershire Police is to make sure that we find this little boy.
00:32 I would like to thank members of the public for all their support yesterday.
00:38 But at the same time I would like to really emphasise how dangerous this area is at the moment.
00:46 And ask that members of the public do refrain from coming back to this location for their own safety.
00:52 And also because as I've said we've got a very professional, a very coordinated search in place.
01:00 And we wouldn't want anything to jeopardise the best opportunity we've got of locating this little boy.
