I have questions. Why, if this boy is 6, is the main pic of him when he was 2? Or is that just a shirt he was wearing, and not related to his actual age? The description of him seems small although the weight is in the broad range of "normal". It seems there are two ponds at the park where he was last seen. Praying he's found safe.

It looks like it might have been added to show a clearer view of his face. Since we now know he’s autistic, maybe he doesn’t like having his picture taken or something and they had to dig to find a clear one? JMO. Just a guess.

Montgomery County Maryland

[...]

Search teams have worked overnight in the search for the child and have deployed drones with the assistance of Maryland National Capital Police – Montgomery County.

Residents in the area are urged to check around their property, including under porches and decks, swimming pools, outbuildings, unlocked cars, and nearby playgrounds. Additionally, please review any home surveillance videos.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Fawzan Hassan is asked to call 911.

Approaching Non-Verbal Autistic Children: Please call 911 right away. When engaging with a non-verbal autistic child, it is important to approach them calmly and slowly. Avoid making sudden movements or loud noises that might startle them. Speak in a gentle, reassuring tone, even if the child does not respond verbally. Non-verbal autistic children might not respond to their name, so try to use other cues, such as visual signals or familiar objects, to get their attention. Most importantly, ensure the child’s safety and wait for police to arrive.
