RCMP now believe that the mom of two missing Surrey children is travelling alongside two men – her father and boyfriend.
In an update at Surrey RCMP on Thursday (July 20), spokesperson Cpl. Vanessa Munn confirmed that missing children Aurora and Joshuah Bolton are likely travelling with their mother Verity Bolton, two men and three dogs. Verity’s boyfriend has been identified as Abraxas Glazov, 53, and her father is Robert Bolton, 74.
An Amber Alert remains in effect in the province after the children were not returned to their primary caregiver, their stepfather, on July 17 after a multi-week vacation with their mother.
The family is likely travelling in a dark blue Dodge Ram 2500 with a horse trailer and a travel trailer.
Verity was last seen at a store in Kamloops on July 15, but the children were not observed at that time.
Munn said that the RCMP believes that Verity and the children are still in the province.
The children’s family are asking for privacy at this time, but provided the RCMP with a statement:
“Our family would like to thank the RCMP for their ceaseless efforts as well as the public, who are sharing the AMBER Alert and have been calling in with tips. Our entire family is devastated by recent events. We ask everyone if they could continue to be vigilant in looking for Josh and Aurora, who we miss greatly and hope they will be returned home safe very soon.”
Munn said that only one amber alert was supposed to be issued. The cause of the multiple amber alerts that were issued on July 19, is under investigation by the national alert program.
