Takariayana Naija Bivens, 16, was last seen on January 27, 2025, leaving her god-sister’s home on Mosyby Crossing Drive in Charlotte, North Carolina. She is described as 5 feet tall, about 120 pounds, with brown eyes and black hair (which her family notes she might change in style or color). The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has classified her as a missing person.

Authorities and family reported unconfirmed sightings in areas between Monroe and Charlotte, broadening the search but yielding no confirmed leads. Public details are limited; the departure from the god-sister’s home appears to have been routine but led to an abrupt and unresolved disappearance. Nothing further about her whereabouts has been established in public statements.

Does anyone who knew Takariayana, or who was in the Mosyby Crossing Drive or Monroe–Charlotte area on or after January 27, 2025, have information to share with investigators?
