Cleveland police search for missing teen Keshaun Williams in Newburgh Heights

Cleveland police tell 3News that they searched the area for over two hours on Thursday morning.

CLEVELAND — The search for missing Cleveland teen Keshaun Williams continued on Thursday. 

Cleveland police tell 3News that 30 officers and federal agents, alongside cadaver dogs, searched an area of creek bed from I-77 to East 55th Street, but found nothing. 

The search in Newburgh Heights lasted for just over two hours.  

Officials told 3News that they had wanted to search this area since the summer, but they had to wait until there was more visibility after the leaves fell off the trees. 

Keshaun has been missing since June 17 when authorities say he never returned home after telling his mother to say he was on his way.

“Keshaun, since you’ve been gone, I have been worried about you," his mother said. "I miss the days that we eat breakfast together, we watch movies. I just miss seeing you in the morning when you wake up. I just miss waiting for you to walk through that door, taking you to boxing practice. I miss your smile. I want to hear your voice. Keshaun, if you see this, please come home. I love you and I’m waiting for you, because I know you’re going to walk through that door,” said his mom during a press conference in November.

He is described as 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 130 pounds with brown eyes. He was last seen wearing black jogging pants and a T-shirt.

Cleveland police say that this remains an active search. 

If you have information on Keshaun Williams' whereabouts, please call Cleveland police at 216-623-5400.
