April Jones: Fears grow for missing girl, 5

Police are treating the disappearance of a five-year-old girl in mid Wales as an abduction.

Hundreds of volunteers have spent the night searching the area for her.

Det Ch Supt Simon Powell of Dyfed-Powys Police said officers were "becoming increasingly concerned for her safety".
