A FRANTIC search is under way for a missing five-year-old girl who was abducted in a van.
April Jones was last seen by another child getting into the grey or light-coloured vehicle which drove off in the Mid-Wales town of Machynlleth yesterday evening.
Police and hundreds of local residents spent the night searching for the youngster who was out playing near her home when she disappeared.
Two police helicopters have been drafted in to help search for April.
Dyfed Powys Police said today that April was wearing a purple knee-length coat with grey fur around the hood, a white polo shirt and black trousers.
A spokeswoman said: “Her abduction took place around 7pm in the Bryn Y Gog estate in Machynlleth. It was witnessed by another young child when April was seen getting into a grey or light-coloured van, or van-sized vehicle.
“While the details of what happened are vague at the current time, it appears the suspect left the scene and drove off with April.
“At the time of her disappearance, April was wearing a purple knee-length coat with grey fur around the hood, her school white polo top and black trousers.
“Many police officers and specialist teams have worked through the night, with extensive searches taking place, and many lines of inquiry are being pursued.”
Police are holding a media conference at 11.45am today in Aberystwyth, where Detective Superintendent Reg Bevan will make an appeal over April’s whereabouts.
Police family liaison officers are also helping the little girl’s family, the spokeswoman said.
Cops said they were “increasingly concerned” for April, who is believed to have been wearing her blue school uniform.
