Clear Channel is donating one of its billboards to aide in the search for a missing 5-year-old Lynn boy.
Giovanni Gonzalez' picture will be put up on a Clear Channel's billboards in Lynn's Wyoma Square next week.
Giovanni has been missing since Aug. 16 when his mother went to pick him up from a weekend visit with his father, Ernesto Gonzalez.
Gonzalez has refused to cooperate with police and will not say what happened to Giovanni. He is being held on $500,000 cash bail on charges of child endangerment.
On Thursday, police said they are planning a new search for the boy, but they won't say where or when they will search. Investigators are continuing to interview people, and in some cases, are re-interviewing, hoping to get more information in the case.
Investigators in Lynn are still
hopeful that Giovanni is alive despite a
bloody mop being found at his father's home after the boy's disappearance. Upon his arrest, Ernesto Gonzalez had a cut on his hand that he wouldn't explain.
The search for the young boy has spanned throughout Lynn, including parks,
cemeteries and lakes, and down to
Puerto Rico where Gonzalez is from.
Giovanni's mother has pleaded to Gonzalez to talk to police.
Police urge anyone with information about Giovanni's whereabouts to contact Lynn police at 781-595-2000.
