Three-year-old Elijah Vue is still missing nearly a week after he disappeared from a home in Two Rivers, Wisc.
As police and volunteer search efforts continue, Vue’s mother faces a criminal charge that she was party to child neglect and allegedly sent the three-year-old to stay with a man for “disciplinary reasons.”
Vue is described as being ethnically white and Hmong, an ethnic minority group that hails from southern China and northern Southeast Asia.
He has sandy hair, brown eyes, stands about three feet tall and has a birthmark on his left knee, according to an active Amber Alert.
He was last seen wearing grey sweatpants, a long-sleeved shirt and red-and-green dinosaur shoes. He may be possibly carrying a red-and-white plaid blanket.
Two Rivers is about 350 kilometres southwest of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.
The three-year-old was reported missing on Feb. 20 by a 911 caller who identified themselves as his “adult caretaker,” and stated that Vue was last seen around 8 a.m. that day, the Two Rivers Police Department wrote in a release.
Police immediately initiated a search and an Amber Alert went out that same day.
