Fresh CCTV footage has given police their strongest lead yet in the case of fugitive father Tom Phillips. The video shows a man forcing entry into a small rural shop late at night. Authorities believe the figure is Phillips, who has been missing since December 2021 with his three children. What makes the footage more troubling is that a smaller figure, believed to be one of the children – appears alongside him.
Police say the video confirms the family is still active in rural areas rather than disappearing completely off-grid. For investigators, it’s not just a burglary case but proof that Phillips continues to move his children from place to place, keeping them hidden from authorities and extended family.
