Search For 3-Year-Old Along Grand River Will Continue

While the search for a 3-year-old boy along the Grand River is continuing, it is being scaled back.

Kaden Young was swept into the river near Orangeville back on February 21.

Large groups of volunteers have joined the OPP in the search.

Police now say with mild weather remaining in the long-range forecast, conditions will continually be assessed along the 13 km search area stretching from Waldemar to Belwood Lake.

Along with the ground search, an OPP helicopter and drones have been used.
