Was there any other children at the bus stop with Austin? If so did they see him go in another direction? Just thought this would help in the search…I think everyone in the surrounding area, Glenwood included, should check their outbuildings in case he became disoriented, and looked for a place to get out of the rain…This is so disturbing..
