I would hide this, but I wouldn't want people to brush over it and not click the cut as I think it is important that people keep their eyes open.
Even more so important if you live in Perth.
Girl 8, found dead in toilet - Child Killer hunted
A MURDER probe is under way today after an eight-year-old girl was found dead in a shopping centre toilet during a family outing in Perth.
The youngster's body was found by her 14-year-old brother in a disabled toilet yesterday afternoon.
A man was seen leaving the toilet just before the grim discovery was made.
And police were today trawling through video footage and interviewing shoppers and staff as they tried to track him down.
The major crime squad is treating the death as murder, but police have made no comment on reports the child was found naked.
Police spokesman Sergeant Graham Clifford said the toilet was in a well-used area - near the entrance to a Big W store - of the Livingston Marketplace shopping centre in Canning Vale.
He had no information on the injuries the victim suffered or the cause of death.
He said the girl went missing after going to the female toilets at the same time as as her brother and uncle went to the male toilets.
The brother and uncle began searching the shopping centre and car park after she failed to come out of the female toilets.
"The disabled toilet was engaged when they first searched," Sgt Clifford said.
He said the brother saw a man leave the disabled toilet when he returned from the carp ark and chased the man through the centre, but lost him after he left the main entrance.
"He (the brother) discovered his sister deceased when he returned to the disabled toilet," Sgt Clifford said.
Police spokesman Ian Hasleby said officers would today set up a mobile investigation unit outside the centre, and begin questioning staff.
They would also work their way through security footage from yesterday to track the suspect's movements, and hoped to release a composite image of the man, he said.
"Police are calling for staff or any shoppers who may have seen anyone acting suspicious between 3 and 4.30pm (WST) to come forward."
Police described the wanted man as being about 27 years old, with blond hair and a chubby to muscular build. The man was about 187cm tall, with a fair to pale complexion.
