A little girl whose body was found in a rubbish bin in Toronto last month has probably never been reported missing, the city’s homicide chief said on Tuesday.
The remains of a black girl between the ages of 4 and 7 were found in a bucket for a bucket in front of a Dale Avenue home in Toronto’s wealthy Rosedale neighborhood on May 2.
Since then, police have spilled numerous tips that came after releasing images of two clothes, the inspector said. Hank Idsinga.

They have also contacted leading detectives in each case of missing children in Canada – all 58.
Eidsing said there was no evidence linking any of these cases to the child found in the trash.
“We believe it is unlikely that the child on Dale Avenue was reported missing,” Eedsing told a news conference.
On Tuesday, forces released two sketches of the girl, completed by an Ontario provincial police artist who works with the coroner’s office.
“We published composite sketches of the little girl in the hope that someone would recognize her,” Eedsing said.
Investigators are also looking for a dark Porsche Cayenne SUV, which inexplicably stopped in front of the house five days before the girl’s remains were found.
Toronto police released a picture of a Porsche that stopped at a home on Tuesday, April 28 at 10:26 p.m.
Eidsing said they were able to track the vehicle to and from the area and are now seeking public help to identify it.
“This car was literally filmed by a camera, on Dale Avenue, in the area of the garbage container, just at the time we think the body was dumped there, and inexplicably stops right next to the garbage container for about 21 seconds.” said Idsing.
“So, of course, we want to identify this car. There may be a completely innocent explanation for why it stopped here, but maybe not. ”
Investigators believe the body was dumped in the days before it was found, but the girl may have died last summer.
Eidsing said there was no obvious cause of death and that it would take some time to establish – or may remain unidentified.
He said they were waiting for toxicology results from the Center for Forensic Science.
The discovery last month shocked the neighborhood – one of the richest in the country – and sent investigators to search for missing children across Canada and around the world.
Eidsing said eight of the 58 missing children have since been searched. Some of the missing have found themselves abroad in detention battles.
