Tavin Boyd was a 15-year-old male from the Granby, Missouri area when he was last seen on November 3, 2020. Public missing-person records and local reporting described him as a White/Caucasian male with black hair and brown eyes, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and approximately 145 pounds. The early public information in the case was limited but urgent: Tavin had left his residence in Granby, in Newton County, and was believed to have taken clothing and personal belongings with him.
Authorities also noted that he usually carried or wore a backpack, a detail shared publicly in hopes that someone might recognize him or remember seeing him after he left home.
The Newton County Sheriff’s Office was identified as the investigating agency, and the case was entered into NamUs as MP75346. The official NamUs listing placed his last known contact in Granby, Missouri, on November 3, 2020, and described the circumstances as those of a missing juvenile who packed clothes and personal items before leaving. Local coverage shortly after his disappearance repeated the sheriff’s office notice and asked anyone with information about Tavin’s location to contact Newton County dispatch, reflecting the immediate concern for a teenager away from home and the need for public awareness in the days after he was reported missing.
The available public record does not provide a detailed timeline of where Tavin may have gone after leaving, whether there were confirmed sightings, or what steps ultimately led to the case being resolved. The attached case data lists the case resolution status as Alive, which indicates that Tavin Boyd was found alive and that this is no longer an active missing-person case. The exact date he was located is not clear from the available information, so the resolution can only be described in general terms: after being reported missing from Granby on November 3, 2020, Tavin was eventually accounted for alive, bringing the missing-person portion of the case to a close. Overall, this case began as the disappearance of a 15-year-old boy from Granby, Missouri, involved a public appeal centered on his description, belongings, and likely backpack, and ended with the most important known outcome: Tavin Boyd was found alive.Last Seen: Nov 3, 2020
