Scary - Please read

Hi everyone. Please read the following from my cousin Christi (email sent this morning). I know this is a long shot, but I thought it was worth trying, in case anyone happens to see this man or his son:

(Written by Christi Price)
My friend Jeni's son Avery Brooks has been missing since Monday, when he went with his dad for the night. His dad (Mark Brooks) did not bring him home Tuesday -- he has joint custody but does not see him very often, and the two of them have completely disappeared at this point. Avery is 8 years old, one of Joshie's buddies, and Jeni is one of my closest friends through dance.
Avery was last seen on Monday, March 17th at 5pm. They are travelling with a dog and Mark drives a nondescript four-door sedan (like a Toyota Corolla or something). There is a warrant out for Mark's arrest for child abduction, and I believe there are restraining orders now in place
against Mark for both Jeni and Avery. We're working on a web site, but please forward this info to anyone you can think of. We're plastering Columbia [Missouri] with the attached flyer, and the Tribune is running a small story today with both of their photos. If it turns into an Amber Alert, which we're hoping for, there will be a lot more media coverage.




Please forward this to anyone you know (especially if they are in or around Missouri) and keep Jeni in your thoughts. I can't imagine anything scarier.
