Brayden Lee Tichota, a 15-year-old male, was last seen in Kansas City, Missouri, on April 13, 2026. The public missing-child poster issued through the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children identifies him by name and lists the case as a missing child matter, placing the last known location in Kansas City, MO. The same poster states plainly that Brayden was last seen on April 13, 2026, giving the case a stark and limited public starting point: a teenage boy, still only 15 years
old, last known to be in Kansas City, and then no longer accounted for in the publicly available record.
The public information available through NCMEC is brief, but it is specific in the essential details that matter most for identification and reporting. Brayden’s full listed name is Brayden Lee Tichota, and the poster includes an NCIC number, M458911995, connecting the public notice to law-enforcement reporting systems. His NCMEC case number is listed as 2084268, and the poster identifies the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office in Missouri as the listed law-enforcement contact, with a phone number of 541-8017. NCMEC also lists its 24-hour call center, 1-800-843-5678, for anyone who may have information.
What has been released publicly does not describe the circumstances leading up to Brayden’s disappearance. The NCMEC poster does not provide a clothing description, a detailed timeline of his movements, the name of a school, a possible destination, a known companion, or any explanation of why he may have been in Kansas City at the time he was last seen. That absence of detail leaves the case centered on the facts that have been formally posted: Brayden is a 15-year-old male, he was last seen on April 13, 2026, and the location associated with his disappearance is Kansas City, Missouri.
In cases involving missing children, even limited public details can be important because they give the community a reliable way to recognize the case and send information to the correct agency. For Brayden, the official public notice directs tips to law enforcement and to NCMEC rather than providing a broader narrative of what may have happened. The case therefore remains, in the public record, a quiet but urgent appeal: a young person was last seen in Kansas City, Missouri, on April 13, 2026, and the posted information asks anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to contact the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office or NCMEC’s 24-hour call center. In overview, the known story is that Brayden Lee Tichota, a 15-year-old boy, disappeared from Kansas City, Missouri; his case is documented by NCMEC under case number 2084268 and NCIC number M458911995; the public facts are limited; and the central need remains information that can help account for where he went after he was last seen.Last Seen: Apr 13, 2026
