Relief echoes through the Twin Cities as the St. Paul PD confirmed that missing teen Kahlil David Light Feather-Spears, the 13-year-old who sparked an extensive search, has been safely located. The details of his recovery have not been fully disclosed, but authorities were emphatic in noting the young man was unharmed.
First reported as missing from 46 St E / 46 Av S., authorities outlined that Kahlil was last seen donning a blue hoodie and green jogging pants, local enforcement teams alongside community members lent their eyes in the fervent search for the Native American teen described as 5'6" tall, weighing approximately 110 lbs., and adorned with long brown hair reaching his waist; his family, not native to the Minneapolis locale, felt a heightened sense of urgency given Kahlil's unfamiliar surroundings and developmental delays.
The initial call for public assistance came via a social media post by the Minneapolis Police Department, which underscored his affinity for water and his tendency to run long distances — a detail that might have been pivotal to search efforts, especially after the family's recent visit to Minnehaha Falls. This penchant for water sources, while charming in one light, cast a shadow of concern, given the circumstances.
The authorities have not provided specifics on Kahlil's adventure, yet encouraged the public to remain vigilant in future incidents, reminding them that tips can be submitted to [email protected] or through voicemail at 612-673-5845, and in urgent situations, to call 911 immediately. The case incident number is 24-126374 for anyone who might still have information to share.
