'MY NAME IS CLEO' First words of Cleo Smith, 4, when cops found her alive in home of ‘quiet man’ 18 days after she vanished from campsite CLEO Smith has been FOUND alive and well in a locked house as police arrested a 36-year-old "quiet man" over her disappearance. The four-year-old's first words were "my name is Cleo" as cops busted open the door and found the girl - 18 days after she vanished from her tent at Blowholes campground site in Western Australia. And now police have arrested the suspect - who was described by neighbours as "quiet" and was seen uncharacteristically buying nappies in the last few days. Another resident said she heard the sound of a "little girl crying" recently but didn't think it was the missing girl. After weeks of searching in the Outback, Cleo was yesterday found in a room inside a locked house. The property where the little girl was found was just a seven-minute drive from her family home. Western Australia Police confirmed that cops broke their way into a locked property at around 1am in Carnarvon, Western Australia. The tot was found by a group of officers and she told them: "My name is Cleo." Little Cleo has now been reunited with her family after a heartbreaking 18 days. She is receiving care in hospital following her disappearance. Cleo's mum Ellie Smith spoke out for the first time since the little girl was found, posting the emotional message to Instagram: "Our family is whole again." Police confirmed the four-year-old was found "alive and well" - which is the "outcome we prayed for." The suspect, 36, was arrested at the property and is currently being questioned by detectives, police said. He has no connection to the family, it was confirmed. Deputy Commissioner Col Blanch said in a statement this evening: "It’s my privilege to announce that in the early hours of this morning, the Western Australia Police Force rescued Cleo Smith. "Cleo is alive and well. A police team broke their way into a locked house in Carnarvon about 1am. "They found little Cleo in one of the rooms." He revealed that one of the officers picked the four-year-old girl up in his arms, before asking what her name was. The tot, who police and civilians in Australia have been desperately looking for, replied: "My name is Cleo." Commissioner Blanch added: "Cleo was reunited with her parents a short time later. "This is the outcome we all hoped and prayed for. "It’s the outcome we’ve achieved because of some incredible police work. "I want to thank Cleo’s parents, the Western Australian community and the many volunteers. "And of course, I want to thank my colleagues in the Western Australia Police Force. #News360Tv ► Support Our Journalism Click Here - https://www.news360tv.co.in/p/support-journalism.html ► Subscribe to News 360 Tv for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
