Buloke Mayor Graeme Milne likened the police presence this week in Donald - a town with a population of nearly 1500 - akin to the hunt for police killer Desi Freeman. “The community has been very concerned about the goings on, and I guess the police presence and the numbers that have been in town over the last three or four days have raised a lot of concerns about the seriousness of the missing person, and with that, it brought the idea that the story wasn't going to end well,” Cr Milne said.
