  1. Can they not use a heat seeking helicopter?

    I came across a child called Kaiser about 3 months ago in Rotorua. He was running away from his “caregiver” who didn’t look like she was his mother. I noted the woman seemed distracted and wasn’t watching the child adequately in my view. I only know his name because she was yelling for him as he was running toward the road.

    I just remember it because I thought what an odd name to call a child. Can’t be that common. Anyway the main thing is the poor kid needs to be found, whatever the circumstances that led to him going missing.
