AMBER Alert for Tennessee Toddler, 2, as Police Reveal He Was Last Seen Without a Shirt or Shoes

A search is under way for two-year-old Atreus Johann Bird, who was last seen in Midway, Tennessee, wearing only a nappy and blue Olaf pajama bottoms with no shirt or shoes. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) has issued an AMBER Alert, warning that a known medical condition may impair his ability to return safely without help.

Atreus was last seen on Sunday in the area of Hilldale Road in Midway, prompting the alert on behalf of the Greene County Sheriff's Department. Authorities said his medical condition may affect his safety if he is not found quickly.

Toddler Last Seen in Midway

According to the TBI, Atreus was last seen on 6 September near Hilldale Road in Midway, a community in Greene County.

Officials have not publicly provided further details about the circumstances surrounding his disappearance. The alert instead focuses on locating the child and making sure members of the public can recognise him.

Atreus was reportedly wearing a nappy and blue Olaf pajama bottoms when he was last seen. He had no shirt and no shoes. The clothing description could be particularly important to anyone who may encounter a young child matching his description in or around the Midway area.

Medical Condition Raises Urgency

Authorities have stressed that Atreus has a known medical condition that may impair his ability to return safely without assistance.

The TBI has not publicly identified the condition, and no further medical details have been released.

Officials have therefore urged the public to focus on the identifying information available and report any potential sighting rather than attempting to manage the situation themselves.

The boy's age also makes the search particularly urgent. At just two years old, Atreus is among the youngest children for whom an active Tennessee AMBER Alert is currently listed. The TBI's active missing-child page identifies him as missing from Midway on 6 September.

What Atreus Looks Like

He is approximately 3ft tall and weighs 30lb, with blonde hair and blue eyes. At the time he was last seen, he was wearing a nappy and blue Olaf pajama bottoms but no shirt or shoes. Authorities have not released additional information about what Atreus may have been doing immediately before he was last seen.

There has also been no public confirmation in the available reporting of what happened to him or where he may have gone after he was last seen. The circumstances remain under investigation.

Police Appeal for Information

Authorities are asking anyone who has seen Atreus or has information about his whereabouts to contact the Greene County Sheriff's Department at 423-798-1800. Information can also be reported to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation at 1-800-TBI-FIND.

The TBI continues to list Atreus as an active Tennessee AMBER Alert, with Midway identified as the location from which he is missing. For investigators searching for the toddler, the public's ability to recognise the details in the alert, from his blonde hair and blue eyes to the Olaf pajama bottoms, could be important.

Anyone with information that could help locate Atreus is being urged to contact authorities immediately.
