This is every parent’s worst nightmare—and right now, it’s a reality for one family in Indianapolis.
A 1-year-old baby boy, Azrael Jude Butler, has been reported missing, and time is critical. He was last seen on February 23, 2026, in Indianapolis, Indiana, and since then, there have been growing concerns for his safety. At just one year old, Azrael cannot speak for himself, cannot ask for help, and cannot find his way home.
He needs us to be his voice.
Authorities are urging the public to pay close attention and share any information—no matter how small. In cases like this, even the smallest detail can become the breakthrough that brings a child back safely.
Right now, there is limited information available about what Azrael was last wearing, which makes public awareness even more important. Every pair of eyes matters. Every share matters. Someone, somewhere may have seen something but doesn’t yet realize how important that detail could be.
This is why your help is so critical.
Imagine for a moment the fear and heartbreak his family is experiencing. The silence. The waiting. The not knowing. For them, every minute feels like an eternity. And while investigators are working tirelessly, they cannot do it alone.

Community awareness can change everything.
Social media has proven time and time again to be a powerful tool in situations like this. A single post can reach thousands. A single share can reach the right person. Someone scrolling through their feed might recognize a face, recall a moment, or connect a detail that leads authorities one step closer to Azrael.
That’s how lives are saved.
Azrael is not just a name in a report—he is a child. A baby with a future, with a family who loves him deeply, waiting and hoping for his safe return. He deserves to be found. He deserves to be protected.
And right now, he needs a community to stand up for him.
If you are in or near the Indianapolis area, stay alert. Pay attention to your surroundings. Think back—have you seen anything unusual? Did you notice something that didn’t seem important at the time? It might matter more than you think.
If you are outside the area, you can still help.
Share his information. Spread awareness. Talk about it. The wider this message travels, the greater the chances of reaching someone who knows something.
Authorities are asking anyone with information—no matter how small—to come forward immediately. Do not assume someone else has already reported it. Your information could be the missing piece.
📞 If you have any information, please call 911 or the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department at (317) 327-3811 immediately.
This is not just another post. This is a call to action.
Too often, we scroll past difficult stories, hoping someone else will step in. But in moments like this, every action counts. Every second matters. And every person has the power to make a difference.
Let’s not wait.
Let’s come together as a community, as human beings, and do everything we can to bring Azrael home safely. Share his name. Share his story. Keep his face in front of as many people as possible.
Because somewhere out there, someone knows something.
And that one piece of information could be the reason this story ends with hope instead of heartbreak.
Help find Azrael Jude Butler. Bring him home.
