Menifee Autistic Boy Missing Since Saturday In Dangerous Heat
Source: NBC
A Menifee autistic boy is still missing from his Riverside County, California home. As you can see from the above video, 11-year-old Terry Dewayne Smith Jr. hasn’t been seen since around 7:30 PM Saturday night — leading to a massive search to rescue the boy who may be without food or water in temperatures that have already soared above 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
NBC Los Angeles said that Tuesday’s high is expected to be 102, adding even more urgency to the search.
Riverside County Sheriff’s Department Lt. Charlie Wilhite said:
“It’s going to be in the hundred-degree range today, and we need to get the boy found…Those are very rugged foothills up there. There are a lot of rocks and areas not accessible by vehicle. There are a lot of areas where you might not see somebody unless you were right on top of them.”

I had an autistic brother and one of the "things" he used to do was *disappear* on the family quite frequently. I remember the feelings of total panic we had as a family while searching for him and this was in the 1960s, not the year 2013. I sure hope that someone finds this little boy soon!
Here is a picture of him (his name is: Terry Smith) that I snagged from another site:
