Authorities in College Station are urgently seeking the public’s assistance in locating 14-month-old Lajyrian Jaihkell Richardson, who was reported missing under alarming circumstances on May 26, 2026.

Lajyrian was last seen at approximately 6:00 AM in the 600 block of Southwest Parkway, wearing a blue t-shirt. He is described as a Black male toddler, approximately 2 feet 6 inches tall, weighing around 20 pounds, with black hair styled in pigtails.

Authorities believe Jaeshia Richardson may be with Lajyrian and her 1-month-old child, Leighton Blake Richardson. Investigators are deeply concerned for the safety of all three, citing potential risks related to Jaeshia Richardson’s untreated medical conditions.

Missing child cases involving infants and toddlers are considered extremely urgent because children this young are completely dependent on adults for survival. A one-month-old and a 14-month-old cannot communicate distress or protect themselves from dangerous situations. That is why every minute counts, and community awareness is critical.

Authorities are urging anyone in or around College Station and Brazos County to remain vigilant. Small observations that might seem insignificant — a child matching Lajyrian or Leighton’s description, an unusual vehicle, or someone acting suspiciously — could provide crucial information to locate them safely.

Parents, neighbors, and local businesses are asked to check nearby areas carefully, especially parks, stores, and streets surrounding Southwest Parkway, where the children were last seen. Reports indicate that even seemingly minor details could lead to a breakthrough in the search.

Law enforcement emphasizes the importance of immediate reporting. If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Lajyrian, Leighton, or Jaeshia Richardson, contact the College Station Police Department immediately at (979) 764-3600. Early tips can make a life-saving difference in cases involving infants and toddlers.

Social media plays a vital role in spreading awareness. Sharing information across platforms can exponentially increase the chances that someone recognizes the children or their location. Past cases have shown that public vigilance is often key to successful recoveries.

Family members of Lajyrian and Leighton are reportedly distraught and pleading for the public’s help. Emotional appeals highlight the urgency, emphasizing that these young children are completely vulnerable and in immediate need of protection.

The public is encouraged to remain calm but alert. Do not approach anyone you suspect may be dangerous, but report details immediately to law enforcement. Your attention and willingness to act could directly save lives.

Time is critical. Infants and toddlers can face life-threatening risks within hours, making rapid dissemination of information essential. Every share, call, and observation matters in this ongoing search.

Authorities are treating this as a high-priority case and are urging media, neighbors, and community members to help expand the reach of alerts to maximize the chances of safely locating Lajyrian, Leighton, and Jaeshia Richardson.

Ultimately, community vigilance, public awareness, and immediate action can make the difference between tragedy and reunion. Families of missing children rely on strangers’ attention and compassion to ensure that every lead is followed.

Please remain alert, share this alert widely, and immediately contact the College Station Police Department if you have any information.

💔 Every moment matters — and every action could bring Lajyrian, Leighton, and Jaeshia Richardson safely home.
