Search efforts continue for a 10-year-old girl who went missing in Mitchell on Sunday.
Search efforts continued Thursday for a young girl who went missing in Mitchell.
The 10-year-old was last seen at Whirl Creek on Sunday.
Search teams have scoured the area every day this week as part of the effort to find the little girl.
The OPP's Emergency Response Team, a dive team, canine unit and helicopter were part of Thursday's search along the water's edge, along with members of the West Perth and St. Marys fire departments.
Teams conducted a ground search on both sides of the Thames River, from Perth Road 155 to St. Marys, an approximately 25-kilometre stretch.
Organizers have asked residents to stay away from the search area.
"It's just too treacherous down here and the last thing we need is someone else going in the water," said Bill Hunter, the fire chief for Perth East, on Wednesday.
