GARY, Ind. - It has been two days since a Gary teenager disappeared, and his family thinks he was lured from his home.
Davion Blakes, 15, was last seen by his mother on Aug. 30 at around 10 p.m. as he was headed to bed.
His mother went door to door in the 1200 block of Dekalb Street in the Miller Beach neighborhood in Gary Wednesday.
That's the last place her son's phone pinged.
They even searched an abandoned home and turned up nothing.
