Amber alert for missing Springvale two-year-old
An Amber Alert has been issued as police search for a missing two-year-old Victorian girl, believed to be with her parents.
Milena Malkic was last seen in the Springvale area on 15 June, and police have concerns for her welfare due to her age.
It is believed the little girl may be with her parents Nadia Malkic and Joshua Coates, in either the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne; Altona; Warrnamboo; Stawell or the Gippsland areas.
Police have released an image of the young girl and her parents in the hope someone recognises them.
They have also released an image of a vehicle similar to the one the family may be driving, a blue 2002 Ford Falcon with registration 1HZ 4SU.
Police have urged anyone who sights Milena, Nadia or Joshua, or who knows of their whereabouts, to call Triple-0 immediately.
The Facebook AMBER Alert child abduction system was launched nationally yesterday to help ensure the safe and immediate return of children.
The initiative complements Victoria Police current protocols around child abduction providing an additional mechanism in support of traditional broadcasting mediums for this purpose.
Anyone with information that may assist police should call Triple-0 immediately.
