"He is under lifelong house arrest." 17-year-old found after six days in the Australian bush
A 17-year-old boy named William went missing during a camping trip in Victoria, Australia, after leaving to fetch extra gear. Despite his expected quick return, he vanished, prompting a large-scale search involving over 100 personnel, including police and rescue teams. For six days, William survived on snacks and water from a stream, facing harsh conditions. His mother remained hopeful throughout the ordeal. On the sixth day, a police helicopter spotted him two kilometers from the campsite, exhausted but alive. After being rescued, William reunited with his emotional mother, who humorously declared he would have a 'life sentence' of staying home. The family is grateful for his safe return.
