# Australian police have called off a search for a four-year-old boy who has been missing in the outback for almost three weeks, after fresh efforts failed to find any traces of the child. Gus Lamont was last seen playing outside his home on a remote sheep station about 300 kilometres from Adelaide. His grandmother left him alone for about half an hour before finding him gone, prompting one of the largest land and air searches in South Australian history. The case has sparked huge interest with images of the boy featured across Australian media.
