(35 minutes later) | |
Police in mid Wales are appealing for witnesses after a five-year-old girl went missing in Machynlleth. | |
April Jones was last seen playing on her bicycle with friends near her home in the town around 7:30 BST on Monday. | |
She was seen getting into a light coloured van which then drove off. | |
Dyfed-Powys Police say they are becoming increasingly concerned for her safety and are asking anyone with information about the incident to call them by dialling 101. | |
Up to 200 people had gathered at Machynlleth Leisure Centre by 23:00 BST preparing to join the search for the missing girl. | |
BBC Wales reporters at the scene said a crowd of people had also gathered on the main street in Machynlleth to look for April. | |
There were also reports of police activity on the estate in the town where she lives. |
