James Hillman was 16 when he disappeared from Tempe, Arizona, on August 18, 2025. Reporting does not give a precise last-seen location, time of day, what he was wearing, whether he left on foot or by vehicle, or who last had contact with him. No named suspect, vehicle of interest, confirmed destination, or detailed timeline has been publicly released.

By May 2026 authorities continued to treat James as an active missing child and believed he might still be somewhere in the local area; his case was highlighted in Arizona coverage of children who remained missing long after their initial reports.

This is a brief, unresolved disappearance of a teenager with many basic details withheld from public reports. If anyone has information about James Hillman’s whereabouts or remembers seeing him in Tempe around August 18, 2025, please contact investigators handling the case.
