Kaevon Malik Alston, age 16, was last seen Tuesday morning wearing a pair of black shorts with a gray zip-up hoodie, black and white high top shoes and pink bands on braces on his teeth. He normally wears glasses but did not take them with him, according to a city press release. 

Suffolk police received a report at 5:30 p.m. that he ran away from home.

Kaevon is further described as a light skinned black male, 5 feet 10 inches tall and approximately 165 pounds with black hair and brown eyes, according to the release.
