A heartbreaking search is now underway in Virginia, and authorities are urgently asking the public for help before it is too late.

Two-year-old Omarion Smith has been missing since May 12, 2026, after he was last seen on West Fayette Street in Martinsville, Virginia. Since then, fear and concern have continued to grow as investigators warn that the child may be in serious danger.

Now, the Virginia State Police and the Martinsville Police Department are turning to the public with an urgent plea: help bring Omarion home safely.

According to officials, Omarion Smith is described as being 3 feet 4 inches tall, weighing approximately 40 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Family members, local residents, and thousands of people online are now sharing his photo and information in hopes that someone, somewhere, may recognize him or know something critical.

Authorities believe Omarion may currently be with two adults: 24-year-old Decorrius Thompson and 24-year-old Kaniya Finney.

Decorrius Thompson is described as 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing approximately 135 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Kaniya Finney is described as 5 feet 3 inches tall, weighing approximately 147 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Authorities say she was last seen wearing a maroon sweatshirt.

On May 27, 2026, the Virginia State Police officially issued a CODI Alert on behalf of the Martinsville Police Department. Investigators say the disappearance poses a credible threat to Omarion’s health and safety, making this case especially urgent.

And now, an entire community is desperately hoping for answers.

Cases involving missing children always strike deep emotions across the country, but situations involving toddlers become even more painful because of how vulnerable they are. Omarion is only two years old — too young to protect himself, too young to understand danger, and completely dependent on the adults around him.

That reality is exactly why law enforcement is asking the public to stay alert and continue spreading awareness.

Because sometimes one share changes everything.

One person noticing a face.

One driver spotting a vehicle.

One tip from a stranger.

Those moments have solved missing child cases before, and investigators hope it can happen again here.

Social media has already begun amplifying Omarion’s story across multiple states. Thousands of people are reposting his information, hoping the attention reaches someone who may have seen something unusual. In today’s world, online awareness has become one of the most powerful tools in urgent missing child investigations.

But officials stress that awareness alone is not enough.

They need information.

They need witnesses.

And most importantly, they need Omarion found safely.

For many parents reading this story, the emotional weight is almost impossible to imagine. Every hour matters in cases involving missing children. Every passing day creates more fear, more uncertainty, and more heartbreak for the family waiting for answers.

Behind every headline is a child loved by people desperately hoping to hold him again.

Behind every alert is a family living through unimaginable pain.

And behind every share online is a simple hope: that Omarion Smith can still be brought home safely.

The Martinsville community has already begun rallying together, with residents sharing flyers, reposting alerts, and encouraging people nationwide to pay attention. Many say the case has shaken the entire area emotionally, especially because of Omarion’s young age.

Investigators continue following leads while asking the public not to ignore even the smallest detail. Something that seems minor to one person could become the breakthrough authorities desperately need.

If you have any information regarding Omarion Smith’s whereabouts, authorities urge you to contact the Martinsville Police Department immediately at (276) 638-8751.

And if Omarion, Decorrius Thompson, or Kaniya Finney are seen, officials say to call 9-1-1 immediately.

At moments like this, awareness matters.

Compassion matters.

Community matters.

Because somewhere tonight, a family is praying for a miracle.

And somewhere out there, a little boy still needs to be found.

Please continue sharing Omarion Smith’s information everywhere possible.

One post.

One share.

One person paying attention.

That may be what finally brings him home.
