The Philadelphia Police Department is actively seeking information from the public to help locate Cameron Wint, a 13-year-old boy reported missing from North Philadelphia. According to the police, young Wint was last seen on April 11, 2024, at 7 a.m. on the 4500 block of North 18th Street. He stands at 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighs approximately 130 pounds, and has a thin build with brown eyes and black hair.

Details of his last known attire have been shared by the authorities; he was wearing a blue long sleeve shirt, a gray hooded sweatshirt, blue pants and was carrying a gray backpack at the time of his disappearance. The Philadelphia Police have issued a description of Cameron and are urging anyone with information to come forward as efforts to find him continue. Police and family members are increasingly concerned for his well-being due to his young age.

Cameron's case is among the latest in a troubling list of incidents involving missing children in Philadelphia, a city where the urgency to find those who disappear seems to fade quickly from the public consciousness, despite the tireless efforts of law enforcement. The community is often called upon to be the eyes and ears of the search, a testament to the shared responsibility in keeping our youths safe.

Residents with any knowledge about Cameron Wint’s whereabouts or who may have seen someone matching his description since April 11 are encouraged to contact the Philadelphia Police Department's Northwest Detectives Division directly or to leave an anonymous tip. In a world where the minutes tick by with increasing heaviness, the call to bring this young boy home grows more insistent with each passing hour. The potential makings of relief for Cameron's family and friends is but a phone call away for someone who knows something about his current location.
