The man was arrested yesterday.

Australian police have charged one man in connection with the abduction of Cleo Smith, ABC News reports. Terence Darrell Kelly appeared at the Carnarvon Magistrates Court on two charges. The four-year-old girl went missing from her family's tent last month, and was found alive in a locked house earlier this week. According to Papalia, the suspect was arrested as a result of "hard police grind". He was taken to hospital twice while in police detention. Some outlets have reported that he suffered self-inflicted injuries. The police investigation into Cleo Smith's case continues. The child first went missing on 16 October, and was last seen in her sleeping bag by her parents early that morning. Officers found Cleo inside a locked house on Tuesday, and she has since been reunited with her parents. https://twitter.com/WA_Police/status/1455784205548359682?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1455784205548359682%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.her.ie%2Fnews%2Fpolice-footage-shows-moment-missing-4-year-old-cleo-smith-found-538603 Confirming the news, Deputy Commissioner Col Blanch said: "It's my privilege to announce that in the early hours of this morning, the Western Australia police force rescued Cleo Smith.
