‘It’s a race against the clock’: Search Continues for Kentucky Boy Who Vanished After Moving In with Mother
Share and Follow

Police in Kentucky are continuing their searching for a 10-year-old Jackson boy, who hasn’t been seen since last week.

Jadyen Spicer vanished from his Breathitt County home in the area of Panbowl Branch Road, either overnight or in the early morning hours of August 6, reportedly wearing Sonic the Hedgehog pajamas.

He has not been seen since, according to what his mother told police, and no one in the area has spotted him.

Kentucky State Police Trooper Matt Gayheart told FOX 56 that there is not any additional information, at this point, that could help lead them to Jayden.

“Unfortunately, we’ve not been able to locate a lot of evidence suggesting that he would be close by. So unfortunately, we’re kind of at the same spot we were when we started the search,” Gayheart said.

“We must continue hope, but unfortunately, at this point, where we’re at in the investigation, it’s a race against the clock. We’re essentially at kind of our last leg. We need to locate him immediately.”

According to LEX 18, a neighbor of the child’s mother, Felicia Spicer (formerly Felicia Gross), recounted the moment she knocked on her door.

“She was crying and asked if she could use my phone,” the neighbor said. “I gave it to her, and she called 911, telling them, ‘My child is missing.’”

“She also explained to me that she went to bed with her husband around nine, and then they woke up in the morning, went to the place that her kid was sleeping, and they found out the kid was not there.”

Police said that Jayden had been living with his great-grandmother, who had recently passed away. Following her death, Jayden moved in with his mother.

Channel 2 Now reported that Felicia Spicer has a past involvement in a child endangerment case. Spicer has reportedly requested privacy.

Jadyen is described as having blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a slim build and stands approximately 5 feet, 1 inch tall.

Anyone with any information on Jayden’s whereabouts should contact Kentucky State Police at Post 13 in Hazard at 606-435-6069.

Tipsters can use the Crime Tip Form on the Kentucky State Police website.

Meanwhile, the community is offering rewards for information that leads to the child, including a $500 reward by a resident with a child around the same age as Jayden.

A GoFundMe fundraiser has also been established “for a cash award for anyone that can produce any whereabouts of Jayden Spicer.”
