A TBI Amber Alert Remains Active for Summer Wells, Missing Almost 3 Years out of Hawkins County

A TBI Amber Alert remains active for missing, now 8 year-old Summer Wells out of Hawkins County.

This Saturday marks three years since then five-year-old Summer Wells disappeared from her home on Ben Hill Road in the Beech Creek Community. Hours later, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation issued an Endangered Child Alert for her that would turn into an AMBER Alert the following day.

They have released an age-progressed photo of Summer and officials have not received any tips that have led to finding her.

Her parents believe someone took Summer and her brothers were removed from their custody shortly after her disappearance. Her father spent almost a year in jail after pleading guilty to a drunken driving charge.

Anyone who has any credible information about the whereabouts of Summer Wells is asked to call 1-800-TBI-FIND.
