The search is on in southeast Harris County for a missing 1-year-old boy, prompting officials to issue an AMBER Alert. Noah Mi'aani Jah-sae Johnson was last seen Tuesday around 12:30 p.m., alongside his mother, Kamilah Antoinette Johnson, 38, in the 11400 block of Space Center Boulevard, as confirmed by the Harris County Precinct 8 Constable's Office on Facebook. Young Noah, with his black hair and brown eyes, was last donned in a navy shirt adorned with flower-print pants, stands 2 feet tall, and weighs about 30 pounds.
In a turn of events, despite being last known to be with his mother, Noah is supposed to be under the guardianship of Child Protective Services. He suffers from a serious medical condition that necessitates medication—a medication that has not been picked up from the local pharmacy, prompting doctors to raise an alert with CPS. Deputies attempted to take custody of Noah but found the family's apartment on Space Center Boulevard near Genoa Red Bluff Road deserted. "We have attempted to exercise the write of attachment by going to the known last known address," deputies shared with KENS 5, adding that the mother was seen loading her car with belongings and leaving with her children.
Kamilah Antoinette Johnson, described as being 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighing 170 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, is believed to be driving a 2007 GMC Yukon, license plate STM 7097. Those with any information about Noah's whereabouts have been urged to spring into action and make contact with the Harris County Pct. 8 Constable's Office at 281-488-4040, option 1.
The Texas Center for the Missing, rooted in Houston, is taking strides to aid in situations like these. Offering educational resources to not only loved ones but also professionals involved in the search, the nonprofit organization is standing by with information that could assist in the return of missing children and endangered adults to their home, as per details compiled on their website. "Thousands of people go missing every year across the United States," as reported by Yahoo News, and the Texas Center for the Missing is part of the concerted effort to reduce that harrowing statistic.
