Armaidre Argumon went missing September 18, 2020. He was only five weeks old at the time and was last seen on Old Forest Road in Wells, which is halfway between Alto and Lufkin. Within about four days, Armaidre's father, DeAndre Argumon was arrested and jailed for endangering/abandoning a child and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. DeAndre, however, was not providing any information to police as to where baby Armaidre was.

Even though the active searching for baby Armaidre has stopped, the case is not closed. Someone must know something about this baby's disappearance. If you do know something, or have seen or heard something suspicious recently that may lead to a break in this case, you are asked to call the Wells Police Department at 936-867-5593 or the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office, who has been assisting in this investigation, at 903-683-2271.

Armaidre Argumon would be about a year and half years old now. He is one of six children who would be under the age of five now missing in Texas. Three are siblings and are missing from El Paso, one from San Antonio, one from Irving and Armaidre. A simple search on the website for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (missingkids.org) shows all six of those children.
