In an unconventional step, the police in Calgary, Canada, chose to rely on what a missing child loves instead of just using traditional search methods, as they began playing his favorite Disney songs from patrol cars, hoping that the familiar sounds would attract his attention and encourage him to approach the rescue teams.

The Canadian network "Global News" reported that this step was part of a search plan that takes into account the needs of Parker, an 11-year-old boy who has been missing since July 16, after the police concluded that responding to what the child is familiar with might be more effective than conventional search methods.

Calgary police explained that Parker is neurodivergent and does not rely on verbal communication, and he may feel fear or anxiety when approached by unfamiliar people, which necessitated the establishment of a search mechanism that suits his condition.

Based on the information provided by his family, the search teams decided to take advantage of his attachment to Disney movie songs, considering them familiar sounds that might give him a sense of safety and prompt him to respond.

Acting Sergeant Scott Gouterson of the Calgary Police stated that police officers are playing clips from Disney movies through patrol cars, including "The Lion King" and "Frozen," after the child's family confirmed that these are among his favorite songs.

He added that the goal of this step is to create a familiar environment for the child, which increases the chances of him appearing or approaching the search teams if he is in the vicinity.

The police continue intensive search operations with the participation of hundreds of personnel and specialized units, alongside police dog teams, air support, mounted units, mountain bikes, and trained volunteers, while continuously reviewing surveillance camera footage and gathering information from residents after receiving dozens of reports since the search operations began.

At the same time, the police urged anyone who finds Parker not to attempt to approach or grab him, but to simply observe him from a safe distance and immediately inform the relevant authorities, noting that the approach of unfamiliar people might cause him to feel fear and move away again.
