RCMP Advisory Alert

USPA NEWS - The police investigation is continuing into the disappearance of two young children that were reported missing 14 days ago from their home in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia.

RCMP Advisory Alert, May 17th, 2025. "Ground and air search efforts were conducted today (May 17) in Pictou County as the missing persons investigation into the disappearance of Lilly and Jack Sullivan continues.

More than 100 volunteer searchers from Colchester, Halifax, East Hants, Pictou County, and Strait Area ground search and rescue and the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association focused on specific areas around Gairloch Rd. in an effort to locate Lilly and Jack and advance the RCMP investigation. The search was supported by Nova Scotia Public Safety Field Communications and EHS Emergency Preparedness Special Operations.

This search follows a large-scale air and ground search that began on May 2 and was scaled back on May 7 in favour of more specific searches. On May 8 and 9, the RCMP's Underwater Recovery Team (URT) scoured bodies of water around Lansdowne Station; URT's two-day operation did not uncover evidence.

The search will resume tomorrow (May 18). We continue to ask that the public avoid the search area to allow trained searchers to do their work."

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Lilly and Jack is asked to contact Pictou County District RCMP at 902-485-4333. To remain anonymous, contact Nova Scotia Crime Stoppers, toll-free, at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), submit a secure web tip at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca, or use the P3 Tips app.
