Kayla Warfel was 15 years old when she was reported missing from Hudson, in St. Croix County, Wisconsin. Public missing-person listings identify her as a female child and place the beginning of the case on December 25, 2025, a date that made the disappearance especially painful because it fell on Christmas Day, a time when families are often gathered and routines are usually closely noticed.
The Wisconsin Missing listing names the Hudson Police Department as the case owner and includes the department’s phone number, 715-386-4771, along with National Center for Missing & Exploited Children case number 2072833.
The publicly available information about Kayla’s disappearance is limited. Online case listings give the basic identifying details but do not provide a detailed account of where in Hudson she was last seen, what she may have been wearing, who last saw her, or the specific circumstances that led her loved ones and authorities to seek public assistance. That lack of detail does not make the case any less urgent; it simply means that, from the public record currently available, the story of Kayla’s disappearance is told mostly through the few essential facts that have been released: her name, her age, her hometown area, the date she was last seen, the agency handling the case, and the NCMEC case number associated with the alert.
In Wisconsin, missing children may be supported by state and national systems designed to help law enforcement, families, and the public share information quickly. The Wisconsin Department of Justice explains that the Wisconsin Clearinghouse for Missing & Exploited Children & Adults assists law enforcement, victim families, NCMEC, and other missing-children organizations in cases involving missing and endangered children. The state also describes its Crime Alert Network as a way for law enforcement agencies to send missing-person and crime alert bulletins to the public by email or text, with missing-person alerts among the uses of that system.
For Kayla’s family, the public record reflects the kind of case that leaves people with more questions than answers. A teenager disappeared from Hudson, Wisconsin, on December 25, 2025; her case was documented through Wisconsin Missing and connected to NCMEC under case number 2072833; and the Hudson Police Department was listed as the agency responsible for the case. In overview, this is the case of 15-year-old Kayla Warfel, a young girl from Hudson whose disappearance was recorded in public missing-person sources with only sparse details, leaving the focus on the central facts that matter most: Kayla was last seen on Christmas Day in 2025, she was 15 years old, authorities associated her case with Hudson, Wisconsin and NCMEC, and anyone with credible information was directed to law enforcement so that even the smallest detail could help clarify what happened.Last Seen: Dec 25, 2025
