Law enforcement officials in the Commonwealth of Dominica have activated a public emergency notification to locate a missing teenage boy, issuing a formal Pink Alert under the country’s missing person response framework. The missing individual is 14-year-old Kenan Peters, a resident of the Eggleston district, whose disappearance was first reported to authorities by Brenderlyn Xavier, who also resides in Eggleston.
Per official details released by the Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force, the teen was last spotted by his older sister, Joan Ettienne, at the Tarish Pit location around 9:00 a.m. local time on Saturday, October 10, 2026. Investigators have released a limited physical description to assist public recognition: Peters is reported to have brown skin, and he was wearing a plain black shirt and black formal school trousers when he was last seen. As of the publication of the alert, police have not shared confirmed information about the minor’s height to add to the public description.
Under Dominica’s structured Missing Person Alert System, the Pink Alert designation is reserved exclusively for cases involving missing children and other at-risk vulnerable groups, designed to accelerate public outreach and mobilize community support to locate missing minors quickly. The police force is now issuing a formal appeal to members of the public across the country to come forward with any information, no matter how small, that could help law enforcement determine Peters’ current location and confirm his safety.
Anyone with relevant details related to Peters’ disappearance or potential whereabouts is encouraged to contact the dedicated police toll-free tip line at 1-800-4357 (HELP) immediately. All tips can be provided anonymously if requested, and authorities note that even minor observations could prove critical to resolving this case quickly.
