One-year-old girl found safe at Dubbo police station as questions remain over her disappearance from NSW town more than 100km away
A toddler who vanished from a remote New South Wales town has been located safe and well, bringing a dramatic two-day search to an unexpected close. However questions remain about who took the child - and why. One-year-old Hariet Kamlade disappeared from the small town of Molong, around 35km northwest of Orange in the NSW central west, late Tuesday afternoon. Her last known sighting was on Ridell Street at approximately 5pm. NSW Police immediately launched a desperate effort to locate the child, raising serious concerns for her safety due to a health condition requiring ongoing medical attention. Authorities believed she may have been in the company of a man and a woman known to her. The search stretched across the state, with detectives fearing the child's condition could deteriorate without urgent access to her medication. Late on Wednesday night, police confirmed Kamlade had been found alive and unharmed, more than 100 kilometres away. 'A toddler reported missing from Molong in the state's central west has been found safe and well,' NSW Police confirmed in a late-night statement. 'Officers attached to Orana Western Police District report that the child was taken to Dubbo Police Station around 11pm today (Wednesday).' Dubbo, located 115km north of Molong, became the unexpected final stop in the frantic effort to find the young girl. Police had earlier described a man they believed was travelling with the child as being in his 60s, of Caucasian appearance, approximately 175cm tall, with a medium build, short grey hair and brown eyes. The woman was said to be in her 30s, also Caucasian, about 170cm tall, thin build, with black hair and brown eyes. Despite Hariet being found unharmed, police have not yet ruled out criminal involvement. Authorities have not confirmed whether the two adults were located alongside her at the time she was taken to Dubbo Police Station. 'Inquiries surrounding the incident are ongoing,' police said. The circumstances of how Kamlade came to be taken from Molong remains under investigation, with detectives expected to question individuals known to the family. NSW Police have asked anyone with further information about the incident to come forward as the investigation continues.

Three men including teen arrested, loaded revolver seized over alleged planned public place shooting in Sydney's west
Three men have been arrested and a loaded revolver seized after a police operation uncovered an alleged plot for a public place shooting to be carried out in Sydney's west. NSW Police said the men including a teenager have been arrested in relation to the alleged organisation of vehicles to be used in the shooting. The chaotic scenes unfolded overnight when police conducted a high-risk vehicle stop of a black Kia Serato at the intersection of the M4 and Prospect Highway in Blacktown at about 12.05am on Wednesday. During the intercept police reportedly fired bean bag rounds into the vehicle to bring it to a halt. Then, a 22-year-old driver and the 17-year-old passenger – both males – were arrested. The 22-year-old was allegedly bitten by a police dog and treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance before being taken to Blacktown Hospital for treatment. There, he remains under police guard.

Aussie man arrested after morning of chaos on Bali streets from alleged carjacking, crashing into two people and lighting vehicle on fire
An Australian national in Bali has been arrested after a trail of allegedly terrorising locals. The man, who was born in Hobart and is being referred to by the initial RWJ, allegedly stole a vehicle and crashed into two people at high speed, before setting the car alight. According to police, the carjacking victim, a Balinese man, was parking outside the villa Eden Residence At The Sea in Seminyak about 12.30am on Sunday when the man began pounding on the window. The Australian then allegedly forced the driver out of his vehicle, before stealing it and crashing into two people. The extent of the injuries is not yet known. The victim then called a security guard and attempted to chase the vehicle, but was quickly forced to halt the pursuit due to the dangerous speed of the man. Police say the man then tried to locate the vehicle using a phone tracking app. His phone which was still in the car, pinged at a location about 7km away on Buana Raya Street. However, when a search proved unsuccessful, he reported the incident to police. Shortly after, Denpasar Fire Brigade received a report of a car fire in the same area, completely engulfed in flames. Two fire crews worked to bring the flames under control at about 5.30am. No one was hurt in the fire, but, the vehicle – a Toyota Avanza SUV – was completely destroyed with a loss estimated at $A14,200. A nearby home also sustained minor damage from the blaze. The suspect was arrested and taken to North Kuta Police Station. Police say the investigation is ongoing.
