The news that Noel Rodriguez Alvarez is missing has turned into every parent’s worst nightmare. The 6-year-old boy from Texas went missing from his home in Everman in November.
Every other day, the news asks, “Has a 6-year-old boy from Texas been found?”
Since it was reported that the boy had gone missing, the police have worked hard to find him. After Noel went missing almost three and a half months ago, the police have now put out an Amber Alert for him.
The Everman Police Department said that an Amber Alert for Noel was sent out after midnight on Saturday morning. At about 9 p.m., it was changed to an Endangered Missing Persons alert. on Friday.
Two days before the Amber Alert was issued, Noel’s family got on an international flight without him. This was a surprising turn in the case.
Authorities say that the boy’s family left the United States on a Turkish Airlines flight.
After doing a lot of research, it turned out that Noel was a very sick child. He had a long-term lung disease that made him need medical care and oxygen on a regular basis.
Last time anyone saw or heard from Noel, he was at home. No one, not even his family, saw him leave the house, so there was no reason to think he was taken.
The police are very worried about Noel’s safety and whereabouts now that they have found evidence that suggests his family might have something to do with the fact that he hasn’t been seen in months.
During a press conference on Monday, Everman Police Chief Craig Spencer said that investigators found Noel’s mother Cindy Rodriguez-2012 Singh’s Chevrolet pickup truck at the Dallas Fort Worth Airport. Cindy Rodriguez-Singh is 37 years old.
The SUV was found at the airport where the family took off for Turkey last week. Now, the car has been moved to a safe place where it is being searched by the police.
Even though the family of the missing boy is said to have gone to Turkey, the authorities think they may have then gone to India.
Spencer said that police found a travel visa for one of Rodriguez-other Singh’s six children. Spencer also said that the visa was gotten a day after a welfare check was done by the government.
After months of having no idea what was going on, the police searched Noel’s house again. On Monday, the house, the garden, and the inside of the family’s home were all searched by cadaver dogs.
Even though the detectives have no reason to think Noel is dead, they sent out the cadaver dogs just to be safe.
So far, no one has been arrested, and no criminal charges have been brought up.
The police have asked anyone who knows anything about Noel to tell them.
