The lost child poster says that he disappeared around 6:30 pm. The sunset in Searcy that evening was at about 5:00 pm, so it would have been dark outside by the time Malik was missing. It's unlikely that he was outside playing in the dark while his family was indoors.
Police were called at 6:30 but dad and g/f reported seeing him last at 5:45. And yes, as you say, it would have been dark - sunset was around 4:59.
