However, as he posted the video, which was saved by multiple users on social media, he became the subject of massive backlash. While it was not confirmed through the video if it was really Lucas Rosales, it was later clarified by the police that they did find a body in the river near downtown Dayton. However, it is still not specified by the police if it is really Lucas.

Lucas Rosales went missing on April 29 when his family was visiting the Eastwood MetroPark

Police had been actively searching for 7-year-old Lucas Rosales, who went missing on April 29 while his family was visiting Eastwood MetroPark in Dayton, Ohio. However, as the police found the unidentified body of a juvenile, they are now considering the possibility that the body is Lucas’. However, at the moment, nothing has been confirmed by the parents or the authorities.

Furthermore, all through the search process, the Dayton Fire Department employed specialized search capabilities, including seven search dogs from Buckeye Search and Rescue, along with Dayton Police and Beavercreek Fire crews. The search encompassed both land and water, including a water-based K-9 search and the use of sonar components.

Talking about the reported body in the water, Lieutenant Jeffrey Thomas of Dayton Police said:

“Upon arrival, crews did locate a body in the water and the body was retrieved. That body was a juvenile male and the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office arrived on the scene.”

At the moment, the police are waiting for the family to identify the body, and hence, it can take several weeks to confirm anything.
