Fox News: British police target 3 men in Portugal in disappearance of Madeleine McCann

British police are on their way to Portugal to arrest three men in connection with the case of Madeleine McCann, the British toddler who disappeared in 2007 while on a family vacation at a Portuguese resort.

Britain’s Metropolitan Police Service wants to question three thieves who carried out raids in the coastal town of Praia da Luz, where the then 3-year-old McCann was last seen, according to a report in London’s Daily Mirror.

The girl’s case was reopened in 2011 and investigators have been following new leads in hopes of finding little Madeleine, who would be 10 years old now. Recently discovered cellphone records showed the three suspects made several calls to each other in the hours after the girl vanished.

"Madeleine went missing and within minutes the phones of these suspects were 'red hot' - they were talking to each other an awful lot,” said Martin Brunt, a Sky News crime correspondent. “Investigators have no idea what they were saying to each other. There are no recordings of the phone conversations, but the activity was such that it's raised suspicions."

Gotta wonder about the British police in this case. They seemed initially to have focused solely on the parents and let other leads grow cold. Is this real, or is it just hype to cover up their incompetence at the outset of the case?
