15-Year-Old Missing In Cleveland

CLEVELAND, OH — A 15-year-old Cleveland boy is missing and police are asking the public for help finding him. Dakota McIlvanie was last seen on Friday before school. He spoke to his grandfather Friday afternoon and hasn't been heard from since.

McIlvanie reportedly told his grandfather that he was going to stay after school for a program. The grandfather told him to come home, the 15-year-old said no and that was the last time the two spoke.

The grandfather drove up to the boy's school and discovered it was closed. There were no after school programs going on.

This is not the first time McIlvanie has run away. He fled his house on May 10, but returned on May 11.

McIlvanie was last seen wearing a grey zip up hoodie, grey sweatpants, with either a white or blue polo shirt. He is five foot six inches tall, 125 pounds and has brown eyes and black hair.
