Polish police are conducting a search for a 5 year old boy that is being described as the biggest in the history of the Polish police. 

The effort enters its fourth day, as hundreds of Polish police officers and Territorial Defence Force soldiers aided by German police dog handlers and local volunteers search areas in the vicinity of Warsaw.

The five-year-old was taken by his father from their home near Warsaw on Wednesday at 5pm. Later that day a missing child report was filed by one of the boy’s family members. The search began immediately and the police used dogs to search for the boy and his father.

The father was found dead yet the five-year-old remains missing. The man is believed to have committed suicide.
