Police and rescue dogs in action: eight-year-old boy missing!
The worrying search for a missing eight-year-old boy from Güstrow is reaching proportions that affect the entire region. Since his disappearance on Friday evening, October 10, 2025, over 100 emergency services have been actively involved in finding little Fabian. He had left the house with permission but had not returned in time. The parents live separately: While Fabian lives with his mother in Güstrow, his father lives near Zehna, where he may have been on his way. This creates additional drama and causes great concern for his family and the local community. The search is intensive and includes the support of rescue dog handlers as well as the use of a drone with a thermal imaging camera and a helicopter, as die Zeit reports.
Police have already searched various areas, including the father's property and the boy's primary school. A trail led to the bus station in Güstrow, where the rescue dogs followed his trail, which then got lost in the nearby forest. The search was interrupted during the night due to darkness, but the search will continue on Sunday morning. The emergency services also collect relevant information from residents in order to make the search even more targeted.
Search and clues
The police have published a picture of Fabian and are urgently looking for information from the public. The boy has a somewhat chubby stature, short blonde hair and blue eyes. No specific information is available about his clothing, but it is assumed that he is wearing sweatpants, a sweater and sneakers. “We ask for any support,” said a police spokesman. However, local authorities warn against conducting your own searches in the forest as this could obscure tracks, making the search even more difficult. According to current information, the police do not believe there was a crime, which could at least alleviate some of the parents' worries. According to NDR, it remains to be seen how the situation will develop if Fabian is not found by the evening.
Concern for missing children is a serious issue that affects many families. According to Spiegel, around 1,800 children have been reported missing nationwide. It is all the more important to act quickly in such situations and to seek public involvement.
