Missing French teen Eloi Rolland: Family say they've lost hope six months after disappearance
The family of missing French teenager Eloi Rolland have long held on to hope that one day their son and brother will be found.
But six months on from his disappearance in Auckland, the hope that has kept them strong has dwindled.
The 18-year-old had been studying English and staying with a host family in Birkenhead on the North Shore, before he disappeared without explanation on the evening of March 6.
Phone data indicates he was near the intersection of Piha Rd and Scenic Drive about 9.18am on March 7.
Rolland’s sister Aurore told Stuff in July her family were “waiting for a miracle”.
However, after six months of no news, she said last week they had lost hope.

Bus to Orewa
Hi everyone, in the proposed changes to the bus and ferries timetable, I note that once again we have been denied a straight through bus from Army Bay to Orewa. We are expected to go right past the turnoffs to Orewa, go to the station in Silverdale,, and then get a bus to Orewa. It’s ridiculous, time wasting, and of no use what so ever. Come on everyone, get behind this and make some noise about it. Just another reason at the moment, not to use the buses. Let’s see if we can change this.😃
