00:00After almost a week with no trace of the little boy,

00:07searchers have now mostly departed from the isolated property.

00:12Whilst we've all been hoping for a miracle,

00:15that miracle was not eventuated.

00:17Four-year-old Gus was last seen on Saturday playing in the sand near his family's home.

00:23Police say the resulting search is one of South Australia's largest in recent times.

00:29This commitment has been ongoing and unwavering since that time.

00:35Police say every piece of evidence found to date indicates Gus just wandered away and became lost.

00:43I'm aware that there's a lot of speculation on social media

00:47and various theories that quite a number of people are espousing on social media.

00:52Can I just remind people that it is not helpful?

00:55SES volunteers, specialist police resources, a traditional Aboriginal tracker

01:01and about 50 members of the Defence Force all carefully searched the property and surrounding areas.

01:08But now limited resources will remain at the scene.

01:13As we scale back our resources, there won't necessarily be a presence on the property.

01:19Gus's disappearance has devastated this community,

01:23which has rallied around the family and emergency personnel conducting the search,

01:28offering to help however they could.

01:30Yes, the family are really upset by this, as you'd expect.

01:34And the public generally are also upset with the fact that a four-year-old is out there somewhere by themselves.

01:44An investigation into Gus's disappearance will continue.

01:48We won't stop. We will continue to investigate and follow any lines of inquiry that we currently have.

01:57A promise to never give up on the little boy lost.
