Summary based on the NamUs case record (NC999659549) and 4 other sources
Tyler Marie Wooding was 17 years old when she was reported missing from Woodbridge, Virginia, on May 17, 2025. Official missing-child information from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children identifies Tyler as female and lists the Prince William County Police Department as the investigating agency. The available public record does not provide a precise time or specific location within Woodbridge where she was last seen, leaving the circumstances surrounding her disappearance limited in detail. Tyler was assigned NCIC number M768421291 and NCMEC case number 2051447.

As the search for Tyler continued, authorities and missing-person organizations circulated information intended to help identify her and determine where she might have gone. NCMEC reported that she might still be in the local area or could have traveled beyond Virginia, specifically identifying Maryland, Washington, D.C., or Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as possible areas where she might be located. The public description also noted that Tyler wears braces, with the bands possibly being red or blue, and that she may use the nicknames T or TT. These identifying details were included to assist members of the public and law enforcement in recognizing her. NCMEC's notice instructed anyone who located Tyler not to approach her and instead to contact law enforcement immediately.

The case remained represented in missing-child listings well after Tyler's disappearance. A Virginia missing-children listing published in February 2026 continued to identify Tyler Wooding as a 17-year-old missing from Woodbridge since May 17, 2025, with the Prince William County Police Department listed as the agency to contact with information. Publicly available sources located for this account do not provide a detailed chronology of events preceding Tyler's disappearance, do not establish the exact circumstances under which she was last seen, and do not document a confirmed resolution. The available information therefore leaves important questions unanswered about where Tyler went after she was last seen and what occurred afterward. Tyler's case remains a deeply concerning missing-person matter centered on a teenager whose disappearance prompted continued efforts to bring information about her whereabouts to investigators. In overview, Tyler Marie Wooding, then 17, was reported missing from Woodbridge, Virginia, on May 17, 2025; authorities identified possible travel areas extending beyond the local community, circulated distinctive identifying information, and continued to seek information that could help determine her whereabouts and provide answers to those awaiting her return.
