Toms River: OCSD reports there is a missing 12 year old near the AMC Theaters in Seacourt Pavilion. Units advise the child might be in the woods behind the plaza, and TRPD will be using their tracking dogs to attempt to locate. Also, the OCSD will be attempting to fly the drone to assist.
Sadly, we have NO further information thanks to TRPD’s excessive encryption policy, and the secrecy that surrounds the OC Sheriff’s Department. So, if anyone sees a 12 year old child roaming around the Seacourt Pavilion, they might be missing.
Update: We are hearing transmissions that indicate a Sheriff’s Officer might have made telephone contact with the juvenile. He is a male, and might be in Silverton near the park.
Hope they find them
???
Sending prayers
Swp.
Why is this 12 yr old out by himself is what I am wondering …
because unfortunately there are parents that believe giving their children money and letting them go to the movies or run around the mall is a good replacement for a sitter at that age
It’s not a replacement for a sitter. It’s called pre/teens going out on a Fri night. We went to the mall/movies on Friday nights in a group… But we never ran away from our parents lol. So either this kid has asshole parents that he’d rather freeze in the woods than go home with them orrrrrr he’s a little shit who needs a swift kick in the ass ?♀️
Robert Connelly the parents need to be more responsible an watch/ supervise there kids … we live In a crazy world any thing can happen to a young child left a lone like that.smh bad parenting 101 ..
Same thing with the parents that let their kids go to the mall and run around and think that it’s the workers jobs to babysit.
Kari O’neill why do you miserable old hags always have to come on these articles and put in their (it’s THEIR by the way not “there kids”,if you’re going to point out people’s mistakes,don’t make any yourself) shitty two cents.wish them good luck and be on your way back under the bridge your swampy ass rolled out from under.judgy people suck
Kellee-shea Graham she’s 100% right. Im 23 ?
Kellee-shea Graham lmao sorry sweetie I’m not an old hag so better get ya facts straight before opening ya duck looking mouth ! Yup I’ll point out PARENTS mistake what’s it to you what options other pp have .. are you the hag police cause you sure sound like one. Hahah @ swampy ass no but I do have a nice ass tho if you’d like to see 🙂 since you seem to know about my body / ass lmaoo i can’t stand stupid fucking people seriously. Smh just crawl back into ya dark hole an do everyone a favor. Thanks
Jon Jones yup that’s true . Exspecially on Fri n sat night it’s ridiculous. . They need to have more things for kids to do than hang out in the mall ..
Jon Jones aka mall rats
Melanie Nau Keating lol .. I agree
Robert Connelly
Don’t be mean. You dont know all the details about this situation.
Kari O’neill I don’t agree with kids being unsupervised, but get used to it in this state. Taxes keep going up , the total cost of living here is becoming insane. Both parents have to work and are still struggling to pay bills. If they have no family close by to help watch the kids, and can’t afford to pay a sitter, their choices are few. I’m sure most parents aren’t happy or complete leaving their kids alone, and would rather be able to be there with them, but may have no other choice. It’s a sad reality In New Jersey
Dan Feimer you are so right
Prayers
Yeah I’m sitting in the boscov’s parking lot watching cops drive around.
They probably toking it up back there god knows I did
Was he with friends or family? Why would he have wondered into the woods in this weather?
???
Sometimes kids do dum things. Hope they locate him!
What movie did he go to see? And with who?
?
Just left that movie theater and there were about 8 police cars out front and a bunch of officers in the building, looked serious hope all is ok

Scary!
Mandy Ann very scary there was such a huge police presence and I overheard one of the officers saying they had a picture and were going to get whomever it was they were looking for when they walked out so Cam and I briskly walked out bc it appeared something big was going to go down
Jill Kliem- French
In this day and age, it’s sad we think of making quick exit.
Oh boy I hope it wasn’t this challenge they have going on on the internet looking like they have been abducted for 48 hours
Kathleen Nicholson was thinking the same thing. So sad if it’s true. Been a lot of kids missing lately and found rather quickly ..
The disappearance challenge is a hoax
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/72-hour-challenge/
It is NOT a hoax. It was something that was done years ago and it’s been “re-invented”. Kids ARE going missing on purpose
Praying

That stupid MoMo game maybe, kids missing all over. Take the challenge, go missing. Brats
He hightailed it from Seacourt to the park?!
Alicia Chapman… you were all sorts of bad luck tonight
I was there saw 9 police cars and a sheriff’s car. My daughter was a little scared seeing that many police officers in one location.
Omg the comments on here are outrageous , you obviously were not raised with manners or are not parents. No matter the situation … that family is scared to death, and need support not more stress. Hope he is found soon. ?
Kae Osea ty!!!
Kae Osea as we know no one is raised with manners anymore. My own kids are me me me. And my wife and I alway correct them and tell them the right way to be.

It was my son…. his life 360 app showed his phone was in the woods…behind the movies ….he wasnt answering ..no friends were either…the parents that were supposed to be there…dropped them off instead of staying with them……..we couldnt find the kids or the parents as my husband was in the last location of his phone searching for my son or his phone …is a parents worst nightmare it takes 1 minute for something to go very wrong….thank you for the concern my son was safe outside with friends all with dead phones and no parents to be found…thats a seperate matter…thank you to toms river police dept and ocean county for their immediate response..
Why does everyone have to make nasty negative comments and always attack the parents I’m glad you all have a perfect life Can’t we just pray this child is home safe for dinner tonight. No parent wants or deserves this to happen.
Did they find him yet? This is my kids friend
Yes they did.
Dorothy Candy ok my son just called him om the phone thank God
