A 3-year-old boy is missing in Kansas City, and police are asking the public for help finding him. Kevari Wilson was last seen around 3:30 p.m. Thursday near East 103rd Terrace and Skiles Avenue, and investigators have not released any information about what happened after that.
According to KSHB 41 Kansas City, Wilson is 2 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 35 pounds. The station reports that the clothing he was wearing at the time he went missing is unknown, leaving searchers and the public without a key identifying detail as they look for him.
What Police Are Asking the Public to Do
Anyone with information on Wilson's whereabouts is urged to call 911 or the Kansas City Missing Persons Unit directly at 816-234-5043, per the same report. No further details about the circumstances surrounding his disappearance have been made public.
Missing-child cases in Kansas City have made headlines multiple times in recent months. Just weeks ago, Kansas City police sought help locating 12-year-old Caroline Martinez, who was last seen near Van Brunt Boulevard and Thompson Avenue, according to KMBC. A separate case saw police locate a 12-year-old girl who had also gone missing, as KSHB reported in a prior search effort. Other recent local incidents have involved children found alone, including one case in which officers identified family members after a child was discovered by herself in Kansas City, according to KCTV5, and another in which police sought help identifying a child found at a Kansas City gas station.
For now, the search for Wilson continues, with KCPD relying on tips from the public to help bring the search to a resolution. No additional details about the boy, including a photograph or clothing description, have been released.
