Winnipeg, Manitoba — October 30, 2025.
Concern continues to mount in Winnipeg as Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith, a 12-year-old boy, has now been missing for several weeks. Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith was last seen on October 30, 2025, just one day before Halloween, and as winter conditions tighten their grip on Manitoba, fears for his safety are escalating.
Police and family members are urging the public to renew attention on the case and help bring Miguel home safely.
What Happened
According to the Winnipeg Police Service, Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith was last seen around 11:00 a.m. on the 700 block of Magnus Avenue in Winnipeg’s North End on October 30, 2025.
At the time of his disappearance, nothing appeared immediately out of the ordinary. However, as days turned into weeks, the lack of contact raised serious alarm. Investigators say the prolonged absence of a child—especially as winter approaches—is deeply concerning.
Police emphasize that Miguel may still be in the Winnipeg area and that someone may know where he is or who he is with.
Who Is Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith
Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith, age 12, is described as small for his age, which may cause him to appear younger than he is. He stands approximately 4 feet 2 inches tall, weighs about 122 pounds, and has an average build. Miguel has black hair and brown eyes.
Because of his height and youthful appearance, authorities are asking the public to pay special attention to children who may seem lost, alone, or out of place. Miguel may be attempting to stay unnoticed or may be in the company of someone shielding him from view.
Case Details and Investigation
The Winnipeg Police Service Missing Persons Unit remains actively involved in the investigation. Officers are reviewing tips, retracing possible movements, and appealing to the public for information that may have seemed insignificant at the time.
Police are especially interested in:
- Any sightings of Miguel Jordan Xavier Cook-Smith since late October
- Information about who he may be staying with
- Any interactions involving a child matching his description
Authorities stress that withholding information—regardless of intent—could place Miguel in further danger.
Public and Community Reactions

Messages such as “Bring Miguel Home” and “Missing Child Winnipeg” continue to circulate as concern grows.
