From Global News.

The ground search for a six-year-old Lethbridge boy who went missing more than a week ago while on a camping trip in southwestern Alberta with his family is being called off.

While RCMP insist the investigation will continue, as of 1 p.m. MT on Wednesday, those involved in the ground search for Darius Macdougall were being pulled out of the area just south of Crowsnest Pass. The area has reopened to the public.

"At this point, if Darius is still in the search site, it is our belief that he is no longer alive,” said RCMP Cpl. Gina Slaney.

Global’s Jordan Prentice reports.
