Summer Moon Utah Wells was five years old when she disappeared from her family’s home in Rogersville, Tennessee, on a June evening in 2021. Family accounts say she had been planting flowers with her mother and grandmother, then went to the basement to play with toys; her brothers last reported seeing her there. When her mother, Candus Bly, checked on her, Summer was gone. She was reportedly wearing a pink shirt and gray pants and may have been barefoot.

A large search of the rural, mountainous area used helicopters, drones, search dogs and multiple agencies but turned up no sign of Summer. Investigators have considered several possibilities — she wandered off, was taken, or foul play was involved — and sought a red or maroon Toyota Tacoma with a ladder rack and white buckets as a potential witness vehicle. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the terrain complicated searches and has warned that speculation and non-credible tips have hindered the probe. The family has said they believe Summer was kidnapped; investigators say there is no evidence of abduction.

The case remains open with no public resolution. If anyone in the Rogersville area remembers seeing Summer that evening or the Toyota Tacoma described, please share what you know with investigators.
