Summary
Amber Alert Update: The RCMP in Surrey have now updated a known timeline as an Amber Alert continues for Verity Bolton and her two children, Joshuah and Aurora. The children were last seen at a 7-Eleven in Merritt on July 7th - it’s believed they were with their mother, her father and her boyfriend. RCMP also say they were travelling with a large trailer. Verity herself was last spotted alone on July 15th at a grocery store in the Kamloops area, leading investigators to concentrate their search on an area between Merritt and Kamloops. Verity does not have primary custody of her children. She took the kids on a camping trip on June 28th but did not return or check-in as expected. An Amber Alert was only issued on Wednesday - more than two weeks after she didn’t come back to their home in Surrey.
