Overview
- WA Police, which released drone footage Saturday, are combing dense bush near the Bibbulmun Track in Helena National Park.
- Investigators say the search moved to Western Australia after a green tent found at Canning Hut six weeks ago was linked to Samuel Whitsed last week.
- Officers ran a nine-day sweep on foot and by drone around the Canning Hut and Brookton campsites in rough terrain.
- Whitsed was last seen February 18 walking toward the trail from Brookton Highway in Armadale and is believed to have reached the Mundaring area.
- Police hold serious welfare concerns and urge anyone with information to call 131 444, while asking landholders along the route to check outbuildings.
