CLEVELAND, OHIO: An amber alert has been issued for a 15-year-old boy after he went missing in Cleveland in mid-June. Keyshaun Williams reportedly attended a party on Gertrude Avenue on June 17 but did not come back. His mother, Shrice Snowden, was worried sick as there was no information about his whereabouts.

As per The Sun, Snowden said, “If anybody knows his whereabouts or if anybody has my child, can you please let my child come home? Keshaun has a whole life ahead of him. I'm begging you - Keshaun is all I have. That's my heart.”

Snowden added that it was strange for Williams to not be in contact with her for so long. She said, “Me and Keshaun always keep in contact. He calls me every day. We're very big on communication. He's never been away from home for this amount of time. This is very irregular of my son to not return home because we keep in contact and are very close.”

Where is Keyshaun Williams?

Williams, who is 5ft 7in tall and weighs 130lbs, was reportedly not the first child who has gone missing in the last few weeks from Cleveland.

As per reports, more than 30 children went missing in May. John Majoy, the top cop in the Cleveland suburb of Newburgh Heights, reportedly stated that chances were high that the children were trapped in sex or drug trafficking rings.

However, authorities were unsure yet if the crimes had been done by a single person or a group. All the cases have reportedly been treated individually. The police have announced a reward of $2,000 for any leads on Williams.

‘He's a very loved kid’

A heartbroken Snowden said, “Everything after the party was a blur, that is why we're trying to get more concrete information about who was at the party,” adding, “He's a very loved kid and everyone knows him in the community. He's very helpful and respectful so this is very blindsiding.”

Cleveland activist James Box said, “I would like to say, whoever has Keshaun, we would like you to release him. You can see his mother here, she's very distraught. We don't know if we have a serial abductor out there or not, but until we find out, this is the way we're looking at it.”
