Deandre George was last seen on the night of October 20th around 10:45 PM around the Washington High School Area (3rd and Sycamore). Since that sighting, another report claims that Deandre was "hiding" with a female in the Whitter Townhome Complex.

No matter if her son is down the street or out of Sioux Falls, Ashley Amos just wants her son back safe and sound.

I just got off the phone with SFPD and they told me he is listed on the nationwide missing persons list. If my son is staying at your house or if he is staying with someone you know please call the police. I want my son back home from what I have gathered and told police, he is still in the Sioux Falls area. Please call police or call/text me @ 605-215-4951 even if you see him walking down the street or you see him in a store. I need my son back home.

Deandre is about 5'2 and weighs 170 pounds. More information about Deandre can be found here on the South Dakota Missing Persons website.

Any resident with leads or information about Danielle’s whereabouts is highly encouraged to contact the Sioux Falls Police Department at 605-367-7000.

Losing a child is scary, and I can only imagine what Ashley is feeling. Let's help find Deandre and bring him home!
