Jacear Johnson, a 16-year-old Black student from Lawrence, Kansas, was last seen by his family on Tuesday, October 21, 2025. Details about the moments before he vanished are limited; his disappearance was sudden and unexplained and quickly alarmed family, friends, and school staff who knew him.

In the days after he went missing the community organized searches, vigils and social media campaigns to share his photograph and description. Local law enforcement and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children are involved and investigators have followed up on tips, but concrete leads have been scarce and the case remains active.

If anyone in Lawrence saw Jacear on or after October 21, 2025, or has information about where he might be, please come forward.
