The story
Virginia State Police issued a CODI (Child Abduction Danger) Alert on June 10, 2026, for a 6-year-old missing from Chesterfield County who was believed to be in possible danger. CODI Alerts are issued under strict criteria when law enforcement has reasonable belief that a child has been abducted or is in imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death.
The alert was canceled the following day, June 11, 2026, after Virginia State Police confirmed the child had been found safe. The specific location where the child was recovered and the circumstances surrounding the case were not detailed in available public reports.
CODI Alerts are Virginia's version of child endangerment alerts, distinct from Amber Alerts. They are activated only in cases where immediate danger is suspected, making the swift resolution of this case a positive outcome for the family and law enforcement response.
