HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. — More than three weeks have passed since the disappearance of 15-year-old Sebastian Rogers.
He was last seen on Feb. 26 in the area of Stafford Court, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
Sumner County Commissioner Don Schmit said in a Facebook post urging the community to stay vigilant and not lose hope.
“Do not lose hope, do not let your mind steer you to the worst-case scenario,” Schmit said. “We don’t know where this kid is. A lot of people, their first knee-jerk reaction is to think the worst case, stay focused.”
TBI said most of the work to find Sebastian is being done out of the public view. Investigators are following leads and the family is cooperating, according to TBI.
“It’s powerful, there were groups of people who would gather around and pray for his safety, it just is great to see the community come together,” Schmit said. “What I like is we can disagree on issues, and that happens, but one thing we can all agree on is this is a child. We all love our kids, no one can dispute that.”
Multiple prayer vigils have been held this month, including one Tuesday night in Clarksville, according to a report from WSMV4 Nashville.
TBI reported there are few clues at this stage to indicate Sebastian’s whereabouts. There is nothing to suggest foul play may or may not be involved.
