KINGSTON and Bayside police members teamed up with the SES and Parks Victoria for a missing person search simulation last Monday, 29 July.
Police said the exercise was run in response to the “growing number” of reported missing persons.
“Exercises like this give us the opportunity to practice and test important skills police use on a daily basis when searching for missing persons,” Senior Sergeant Campbell said.
“It’s a great opportunity to build on the great relationships we have with other agencies such as SES and Parks Victoria.”
Over 25 police officers took part.
