It has been more than a fortnight since William 'Billy' Wadsworth drove away from a caravan park in Western Australia's Goldfields. The 'affable' and talented dancer has not been seen since.
What's next?In the remote town of Norseman , halfway between Perth and the South Australian border, a lone caravan sits against the gravel and dirt.On Thursday, August 15, William Wadsworth left his van behind, ostensibly for a day of prospecting and exploring the region's back country in his blue utility.
"You've got 35-metre-high eucalypt trees, if you've parked under there, you can't spot them from the air," Dundas Shire CEO Peter Fitchat said."When it rains, you get bogged easily. There are hundreds of tracks that go nowhere." Adding to the "grave concern" is the fact Mr Wadsworth's mobile phone and medication remain inside his caravan.Inspector Mick Kelly from Goldfields-Esperance Police said it was not uncommon for Mr Wadsworth – who hails from Manjimup in the state's south-west – to "lob into a country town" for a "little bit of prospecting".Inspector Kelly said there was no reason to suggest Mr Wadsworth had met foul play.
