Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP87049)
Kendel Caal Chub, a 14-year-old boy, went missing from Dallas, Texas, on November 10, 2021. His disappearance was classified as a runaway case by local authorities, a category that unfortunately represents a large portion of missing juvenile cases in Texas. Runaway cases account for around 80-85% of missing children cases, but this does not diminish the potential risks these young people face.
Though considered a runaway, Kendel's safety remains a top concern due to the potential dangers encountered while missing, including exposure to unsafe environments and individuals.
The Dallas Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit is responsible for investigating such cases, encouraging anyone with information to contact them immediately. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) also maintains an online bulletin for missing individuals, which includes details about Kendel and others who remain missing. Although runaway children often leave voluntarily, they are considered vulnerable, and authorities continue to emphasize the urgency of finding them safely.
Efforts to locate Kendel have been ongoing, with police working alongside various organizations that support missing children cases. Public engagement remains critical in these cases, and tips from the community can provide leads to bring missing children like Kendel home. The Missing Persons Clearinghouse and other resources available at the state level also highlight the scale of missing person cases in Texas, with thousands of new reports filed each year.Last Seen: Nov 10, 2021
