Search resumes for missing boy in South West

The desperate search for an eight-year-old boy has resumed this morning in our South West.

The boy was last seen around 9am on Sunday at his family's campsite at Fernhook Falls, about 35km north of Walpole.

Local police, SES volunteers and the police airwing searched the Mount Frankland National Park for several hours on Sunday but found no trace of the missing child.

Dense bushland along with several fast flowing creeks are making the search difficult.

There are fears he could have fallen into the water.
