Police and firefighters have ended Wednesday’s effort to find a missing 11-year-old Calgary boy. Currently, police are not commenting on the result of that effort. An update is expected about 4:30 p.m. Parker Wells went missing on July 16. A massive search involving hundreds of police officers and trained volunteers, as well as many a Calgarian and others travelling from outside the city, did not turn him up. On Monday, police said they were “refocusing from the physical search,” but not giving up. Wednesday brought the search back to Skyline West and Skyline East. “As part of our ongoing investigation into Parker’s disappearance, we continue to follow up on all evidence, information and leads,” police said. “Recent potential evidence has identified an additional area between the Beaver Dam Business Park and Deerfoot Trail as one that requires a more thorough search.” Alex Kwan, the Calgary Fire Department’s public information officer, added police “requested CFD support and resources in the area.” This is a breaking news story. It will be updated as new details become available.
