Kiven Mcfadden, 15, was last seen in Hartsville, South Carolina, on January 9, 2026. Initial reports say the day began like any other but that he did not return and his absence quickly became a concern for family and the local community. Authorities provided few specifics in the early days, and the circumstances of his disappearance remain unexplained.

The Darlington Police Department asked the public for any information that could help locate Kiven and noted investigators believed he may have stayed in the local Hartsville area. That possibility offers hope he could be nearby, but it also raises concerns about what he might be facing alone.

Does anyone in Hartsville who knew Kiven, his routine, or recent contacts have information that could help find him?
