Montreal police will use divers today to search the Riviere des Prairies to search for Ariel Jeffrey Kouakou a week after the 10-year-old boy left home and disappeared while walking to a friend’s house.<\/p>\n

Police say divers will enter the river at about 8 a.m. after performing a series of current and ice thickness tests on Sunday to ensure it was safe to do so.<\/p>\n

Officers have been going door-to-door, searching backyards, and have used horses and all-terrain vehicles to search the Ahuntsic-Cartierville neighbourhood where the boy was last seen.<\/p>\n

Police say they have received more than 247 tips from the public since the boy disappeared.<\/p>\n

Canadian boxer Adonis Stevenson, meanwhile, has told Radio-Canada that he is donating $15,000 to the boy’s family, who had already announced a $10,000 reward to anyone who helps find their son.<\/p>\n

The boy’s father has told reporters he’s convinced his son was abducted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
