While this alert concerns Dieppe, New Brunswick, missing youth cases highlight broader safety issues that affect communities across Canada. CrimeCanada.ca tracks patterns of public safety risks in many regions, similar to how we monitor community safety and crime data for areas such as French River 13 crime and safety statistics.

CrimeCanada.ca Safety Perspective

From the perspective of CrimeCanada.ca, a missing youth alert is always treated as a high-priority public safety issue. Young people may be more vulnerable to environmental risks, exploitation, or unintended harm when they are away from trusted adults and familiar surroundings. In New Brunswick communities like Dieppe, rapid public awareness can make the difference in locating a missing child safely and quickly.

We encourage residents to take a few simple safety steps during this active alert: remain attentive in public spaces, especially around parks, transit routes, shopping areas, and residential streets; review this description carefully; and talk with family members—especially teens—about the importance of staying in contact and knowing how to reach trusted adults and police in an emergency. If you see someone who may be Waylon, do not approach in a way that could escalate risk; instead, call the Codiac Regional RCMP at 506-857-2400 as soon as possible and provide clear details about the location, time, and direction of travel.

CrimeCanada.ca’s mission is to support safer communities by amplifying time-sensitive alerts like this one and by connecting them to broader patterns in public safety data.
