District of Sigmaringen - Search for missing two-year-old resumed

The search for the missing toddler in Bingen in the district of Sigmaringen in Baden-Württemberg has been resumed. According to a police spokeswoman on Tuesday morning, the water police are searching the River Lauchert for the two-year-old girl, who has been missing without trace since Sunday evening. The DLRG is also involved in the search.

Rescue workers and police have been searching for the child in the village near the Swabian Alb since her disappearance. On Monday, police sniffer dogs picked up a trail of the girl that led to the river. The family home is located in the immediate vicinity of the river. Divers had already searched for the little girl along the Lauchert on Sunday - without success.

The two-year-old had probably left her parents' house in her pyjamas in an unobserved moment on Sunday afternoon. So far, officials are assuming that it was an accident.
