The New Orleans Police Department is investigating a reported simple kidnapping in the 4500 block of Eastview Drive in the city’s Seventh District involving a 17-year-old male, Trenton Reeves. Police said Reeves, who is white, was last seen on June 10, 2026, at about 10:07 p.m. at the residence of his caregiver. At the time, he was reportedly approaching the caregiver’s vehicle and was accompanied by the caregiver’s adult son.
According to the report, the caregiver later exited the residence and found both Reeves and the vehicle missing from the location. The vehicle is described as a brown Mercedes-Benz ML3 with Louisiana license plate CB01607.
Authorities said Reeves has a medical condition that makes him nonverbal and requires medication, increasing concern for his safety and well-being. NOPD investigators are asking anyone who may have seen Reeves, the vehicle, or any activity connected to the incident to come forward with information that could help the investigation.
