Boy found after cold night alone

Posted October 1, 2008 09:00:00

A six-year-old boy is being treated for hypothermia after spending the night lost near Innamincka in the South Australia's far north-east.

The boy was found just after 6:30am after he wandered away from a holiday campsite known as The Common at about 6:00pm.

A search involving police and about 30 volunteers searched last night without success and began again at first light.
