Aurora Bolton and Joshua Bolton
Surrey RCMP have released new pictures and some details of vehicles linked to an Amber Alert that’s been in place for over a week.
Investigators believe that Verity Bolton – the mother of Aurora, 8, and Joshua Bolton, 10 – and her boyfriend, Abraxas Glazov, may have access to a green 1996 Mitsubishi Delica.
They say while the right-hand drive vehicle is registered to Verity Bolton, it is not insured and police do not know if there are any licence plates attached.

Police also say the horse trailer spotted in Kamloops on July 15 has since been identified as a White 2018 Maverick Highside horse trailer with BC licence plate 05994K.
The large fifth wheel spotted in Chilliwack on June 30 has also been identified as a Brown 2018 Cougar trailer, model 368 with BC licence plate WPM71B.

“We are asking the public to continue to remain vigilant, and report any possible sightings or information that could lead us to locate Joshuah and Aurora,” Surrey RCMP Major Crime Section Staff Sergeant, Dave Strachan, said.
“While the last confirmed sighting of Verity was July 15 in Kamloops, we know that she has access to multiple vehicles/trailers and may have travelled elsewhere since that time. Our investigators remain open to all possibilities and leads.”
The two children were not returned to their father – who has primary custody – on July 17 after a planned camping vacation with their mother near Kelowna. The Amber Alert was issued on July 19.
The last confirmed sighting of the two children was at a Merritt gas station on July 7. Verity’s father, 74-year-old Robert Bolton, was also spotted at the gas station. Police said on Monday they believe the abduction was planned and that the group is living in trailers somewhere “off the grid.”
If you have any information on the whereabouts of the Bolton siblings, police say to contact the dedicated tip line at 604-599-7676 or by email here.
