Police are asking for the public’s help to find an 11-year-old boy who went missing shortly after leaving a friend’s home in the north Kansas City area.

TreVion Brown, 11, left a residence Thursday night in the 1300 block of Vine Street on foot, but has not been seen since, according to Capt. Corey Carlisle, a spokesman for the Kansas City police.

He was wearing a red coat and red pants, Carlisle said.
