"The infant is with their parents. We don`t know what food or water they have with them but there`s plenty of water in that area due to the flooding … We are concerned, obviously, and we`re making efforts to ensure we can locate them as soon as possible," Acting Superintendent Brendan Muldoon was quoted as saying by the ABC broadcaster.
According to the broadcaster, the six people set off in two cars to the Northern Territory from Western Australia on Sunday. They did not make it to their destination. Muldoon said that ground searches of almost 100 kilometers (62 miles) of road had to be aborted due to the impossible conditions of road travel.
A helicopter was reportedly sent to the site where the travelers were deemed to be on Tuesday. The cars of the travelers were found, but it was not reported whether or not the travelers were with the cars. On Sunday, regions of central Australia sustained heavy rains and flooding, which lead to the closing of Uluru National Park.
