Missing toddler found safe on side of road 90 miles from home — as cops reveal mom's alarming online search before her disappearance
A toddler was found alive and wandering on the side of a Canadian highway nearly 100 miles away from home after a frantic four-day search — as cops revealed her mother made several unsettling online searches, including for children's urns and funeral arrangements, before the tot's disappearance. Claire Bell, 3, was discovered on an Ontario highway Wednesday afternoon, some 90 miles west of her home in Montreal, Sûreté du Québec, the provincial police, said. The tot was seen Sunday morning leaving an emergency exit of her apartment building in Montreal's La Salle region with her mother, Rachel Todd, and her pet chihuahua, according to Le Journal de Montréal.

Surete du Quebec Her mother reported Bell missing later in the day in Coteau-du-Lac, about 60 miles away from where she was last seen. A large-scale 'frantic' search was then carried out in Quebec and Ontario following the missing report, according to CTV. Advertisement Hundreds of police and civilians went searching for the missing tot, according to the Montreal Gazette. Bell was found wandering alone on the side of Highway 417 in Ontario after a drone search was deployed over a witness tip, the outlet said. A chihuahua that matched the description of one believed to be with Bell when she was last seen was found dead close to the souvenir shop where Todd reported her daughter missing. Cops are now searching for an important witness who may have more information about what happened in the hours between when Bell was last seen and reported missing by her mother, the outlet reported. Advertisement Bell's mother, Rachel Todd, was arrested and charged with child abandonment. Gilberto Mesquita – The witness is a woman who lives on a farm either in the Montérégie region or in Ontario, speaks English and French, and had met the missing girl's mother on Sunday between when she was last seen and reported missing. Todd, 34, was arrested and charged with child abandonment, according to the outlet. Advertisement Investigators allegedly found alarming online searches, including funeral arrangements and children's urns, when they looked through Todd's phone after her arrest, Le Journal de Montréal reported. 'This story really, really doesn't look good,' a police source working on the case told the outlet. Court proceedings for Todd have been delayed until Friday, the Gazette said.

In a news release, police say the suspects obtained vehicles worth $126,500 on average using counterfeit documents, including IDs, credit reports, cheques and pay stubs to purchase the cars. Once in possession of the luxury vehicles, the suspects would then allegedly export them overseas. Police say the cell originated in Mascouche, Que., a suburb north of Montreal, and that two of the vehicles were recovered during the investigation. Three men — a 47-year-old from Mascouche, a 62-year-old from Montreal, and a 61-year-old currently detained in Ontario — were arrested and will appear in court in Joliette, Que., in mid-July. Police say they are still looking for a 42-year-old man, also from Mascouche, connected to the case. Toronto Maple Leafs Tennis Editorial Cartoons World World
