Police end physical search for missing French teen Eloi Rolland
Hi neighbours.
Police say they have exhausted all leads for finding Eloi Rolland, 18, who has been missing from Auckland for almost four months.
The teen, who has limited English, has not been seen since he was captured on CCTV at the Britomart train station on March 7, where he caught a train to New Lynn's Fruitvale Rd station. It's understood he was in the vicinity of Piha Rd and Scenic Drive at 9.18am, but this is where the trail ends.
After more than 1600 hours searching for Rolland, police ended the physical search in May, pending reports of new information or evidence.
Rolland's sister, Aurore Rolland, told Stuff the family were "really sad" the search had been suspended.
"We [are at] the point where we are waiting for a miracle. We believe [he] is not dead in the sea at Piha Beach. Things need to be done, even if we have to search during our entire life."

Idiot owner of a black VW Golf
To the owner of the child that drives a black VW golf registration plate either LUY601 or IUY601 PLEASE remind the idiot that the road through fowlds Park is NOT a race track. There are dogs,children and people I was crossing over from the park to the other side and my dog and I were nearly bowled. That thing was not stopping. And it had a passenger. Traveling at least 60km.
