The child was living with his aunt in Murfreesboro, TN, after coming to the USA from El Salvador six months prior. The child's mother resides in El Salvor, and the father is unknown. On September 20, 2023, the child packed all his belongings, and left his aunt's residence with unknown persons driving a dark colored sedan. It was learned that the child was possibly headed to an unknown location in Florida to be with other family members. The aunt was unaware of any family that lived in Florida. On September 27, 2023, the child's phone was pinged in the West Palm Beach area of Florida. Local law enforcement was sent to the location of the ping but never made contact with him. The phone has since been deactivated, but it is believed that he is still in the area.
