Timothy appears to have left the home he shares with his adoptive parents on his own. No signs of foul play have surfaced, but the family went all weekend without hearing from him or knowing his whereabouts.
the child was very sad over his Mom's death, despite having a loving adoptive family. i hope he is home soon!
SALISBURY, NC (WBTV) - Police in Salisbury are still looking for an 11-year-old boy who has been missing for nearly three days.
James Timothy Greene lives with his adoptive parents on Holmes Avenue. The boy goes by his middle name or "Tim", and he has not been seen since Friday night.
Tim's adoptive father said he hopes the boy is somewhere safe.
On Monday, Timothy's cousin, younger brother and friend posted missing flyers around town.
"My gut feeling is a lot of different things. I just hope and pray he is safe," Cousin Whitley Bates said.
Bates estimates they've handed out more than 200 posters. But she's not stopping there.
"I've sent out text messages, posted it on facebook, twitter. They have a kids myspace type thing," Bates said.
Timothy's father said on Monday that what they thought was a promising lead turned up nothing.
An Amber Alert has not be issued for the boy because at this point police do not believe Timothy was abducted. He was last seen wearing a gray hoodie and gray sweatpants possibly over red and blue basketball shorts. He has white and blue sneakers.
Tim is 4 feet, 7 inches tall and weighs 75 pounds. He also has a Mohawk haircut.
If you have seen him, call the Salisbury Police Department at 704-638-5333.
