The billboards are in partnership with MissingKids.ca.<\/p>\n<p>Each billboard will include a photo of Kai and contact information for Burnaby RCMP. They&#39;ve also been translated into French and Serbian.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Police were first contacted about Kai on Sept. 26, &quot;when a well-being check was requested for him,&quot; according to Friday&#39;s news release. Police said investigators have spoken with Kai&#39;s family &quot;and have reason to believe he is with a caretaker, who police are actively working to identify.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Burnaby RCMP media relations officer Cpl. Laura Hirst said police are making a direct appeal to the caretaker or anyone who knows them, adding police need to confirm Kai&#39;s safety and well-being.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed embed-jwplayer\" id=\"file-9376217\"><iframe allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"embed-item\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/blackpress.tv\/embed\/57230\/Billboard_campaign_launched_for_BC_boy_11_reported_missing_for_3_weeks\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&ldquo;We want everyone to be on the lookout for Kai. Our investigators are working tirelessly to locate him, and we are asking for the public&rsquo;s help as part of that ongoing effort,&quot; Hirst said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The billboards are another method among many which we are using to get the word out about Kai and help move our investigation forward.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Burnaby RCMP put out the first news release Oct. 1, with minimal information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The next update came Oct. 2 when police first mentioned the caretaker. It added that &quot;various investigational avenues were pursued,&quot; but were so far unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p>The Oct. 9 Burnaby RCMP said investigators were hoping to speak with community members who may have interacted with Kai as part of his daily routine, specifically&nbsp;any adults or parents whose children have been participating in playdates, sports, and\/or extra curricular activities with Kai.<\/p>\n<p>It also included a statement from Kai&#39;s family in New Zealand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Kai is a bright, curious, outgoing and kind little boy who loves to climb trees, build forts and learn to sail. &nbsp;He is a friend to all animals and particularly adores horses, cats and dogs.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Kai is described as five feet, with a thin build and brown hair.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anyone with information on where Kai might be is asked&nbsp;to contact the Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 or their local police.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Burnaby RCMP say Kai Pavlovic&#8217;s believed to be with caretaker, police working to identify who<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":130,"featured_media":158632,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,6,28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-158608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-regional-news","category-video"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
