According to Cleveland Missing President John Magjoy, a search and recovery operation is underway for the two submerged vehicles.

Investigators have released new information in hopes of finding missing Cleveland teenager Keshaun Williams

“Keshon is gone. It was very painful. I miss the big, wet kiss he gives me every time I give him a ride home. I miss it. I miss him,” his grandmother Mary Williams said at a press conference. earlier this month. “There are people here who know what happened to Keshaun and I am praying that you will come forward and provide the information that you have. I’m not asking you if you have it. I know people have it, so we’re just praying that you come out.”

Police and the U.S. Marshals Service said they received a tip over the past few weeks that led them to focus on what is now a vague description of the vehicle.

“We have reason to believe that he (Keshon) was last seen leaving the party and getting into a dark colored SUV with a group of juvenile males,” Deputy US Marshal Vincent Piccoli said.

Piccoli said the report is believed to be accurate, and there were between two and four children in the SUV.

The description of the new vehicle differs from that of the black Jeep that was initially linked to the case but was later returned.

Piccoli said Williams is believed to still be in the Cleveland area and hopes the public can provide more details to fill in the gaps about the dark color in order to bring Williams home safely.

The reward for information leading to Williams’ whereabouts has been increased to $27,500.
