**Detroit, MI –** In a dramatic escalation of the investigation surrounding the disappearance of siblings Anna and Nicholas Durant, Detective Frank Keller has reportedly subjected the occupant of a parked recreational vehicle to a prolonged and intense interrogation. The event, which concluded late this evening, has raised significant concerns within the Detroit Police Department and fueled speculation about the potential involvement of the individual, identified only as “Mr. Hayes,” in the Durant case.
According to multiple sources within the department, Mr. Hayes, a man in his late 40s with a noticeable limp, was located parked near the Durant residence on Elm Street early this afternoon. Initial attempts to question him proved fruitless, with Hayes initially refusing to cooperate. However, Detective Keller, known for his relentless pursuit of justice and his unorthodox interrogation techniques, reportedly employed a strategy involving repeated questioning about the Durant’s routine, their relationships, and any potential knowledge of their whereabouts.
“He kept pushing, you know?” stated Officer Miller, an eyewitness to the interrogation. “Keller just wouldn’t let it go. He’d ask the same questions over and over, drilling into Hayes. It wasn’t pleasant, but you could see the guy was starting to crack.”
The interrogation reportedly lasted for approximately six hours, punctuated by periods of silence and increasingly pointed inquiries from Keller. At one point, Keller reportedly confronted Hayes directly, stating, “Someone knows something. And you’re the key.” Hayes eventually provided a brief, fragmented account of his presence in the area, claiming he was “just passing through” and had no knowledge of the Durant family. However, his demeanor and inconsistencies have led investigators to believe he is withholding crucial information.
The Durant family’s disappearance has captivated the city, and Keller’s aggressive approach has drawn both praise and criticism. Some within the department believe his methods are necessary to break through Hayes’s resistance, while others worry about potential legal repercussions.
“He’s a good man, Keller,” said a source close to the investigation, speaking on condition of anonymity. “But he doesn’t always play by the book. He just wants to find those kids.”
As of this evening, Mr. Hayes remains in police custody. Investigators are continuing to analyze his statements and are reportedly exploring his background and potential connections to the Durant family. The search for Anna and Nicholas Durant continues, with the city holding its breath and the investigation intensifying.
