Police call off bush search

THE four young people found dead in remote Central Australia after their car broke down likely died due to heat and a lack of food and water, Northern Territory police say.

The bodies of a 19-year-old man and woman and a threeyear-old boy were found on Wednesday.

Police searching for a missing 12-year-old boy also believed to be in the car found the body of a child 120m from the three family members on Thursday.

A land and air search was called off yesterday when police concluded there had been no more passengers.
