Newing was playing near his home in Lee Warner Avenue, Fakenham, just days before his 11th birthday when he vanished. One theory was that he had fallen down a disused well shaft of an old sawmill nearby, but it is widely believed that he was abducted. He was last seen at about 3pm in Lee Warner Avenue by his brother and a male friend, playing with a white mouse. He had found the animal the day before in a neighbor's garden and had been showing it to friends on the day he disappeared. He was wearing a blue roll neck sweater with a green and yellow sweater over the top, blue jeans with a cub's leather belt, a green anorak and baseball boots. His satchel was found at a water tower near his home.
