UPDATE: Eyeglasses found do not belong to Sebastian Rogers, deputies say

SUMNER COUNTY, Tenn. – A pair of eyeglasses found do not belong to a missing Sumner County teen, authorities say.

The Sumner County Sheriff’s Office confirmed Wednesday, April 3 that eyeglasses recently found are not related to Sebastian Rogers, a 15-year-old who went missing on Feb. 26.

Law enforcement and much of the community of Hendersonville, Tennessee and surrounding areas have tried to find a sign of Rogers to no avail.

Deputies say a search operation planned for Wednesday has “been in the works for several days.”

On Friday, March, 29, the United Cajun Navy, who assists in missing persons cases, stated that day’s search was called off due to “increasing security concerns.” The group later shared a statement regarding those concerns, which included the following:

“Anyone who deliberately impedes the investigation and search for Sebastian Rogers will automatically be considered a person of interest, especially when we know those individuals have extensive criminal records. We are finalizing some intel that we will be turning over to law enforcement, and then we will begin the process of exposing those who actively tried to stop this search. These people are dangerous criminals and the good people in and around Sumner County have a right to know about the evil embedded in their community.”
