PEKIN - A Pekin teen ran away from home when police officers were called to assist a truancy officer, police said Monday.
Robert Bee Jr., 13, has been missing since Thursday when a truancy officer from Pekin Public Schools went to his home in the 200 block of Sapp Street. He attends Wilson Intermediate School and hadn't been to school that day, said Detective Mike Eeten with the Pekin Police Department.
A Pekin police officer was called to help and when the officer arrived, Bee ran away and hasn't been home since. His mother reported him as a runaway Friday. Pekin police have posted pictures of him on social media and solicited help from the public. And while a lot of leads have come in, Bee has not been found.
"We don't really know for sure," Eeton said when asked if he thought Bee had left the area. "We don't have anything that drives us in that direction. We are still trying to find a solid lead that says we saw him at this place or that place.
"We haven't had any record of where he's at in the past few days. Mom gave us a list of different people that he hangs out with and we have been in communication with the school of who he hangs out with on the bus and in class." Source: pjstar

Police, sister keep up search for missing Pekin boy

“I love you, Little Brat.” That’s how Stephanie Clauser signs off on many of her social media posts now. Clauser, 42, is the half-sister of Robert Bonsai Bee, Jr., the 13-year-old Pekin youth who’s been missing since mid-November.
“That’s what I call Bonsai, ‘Little Brat’. He grew up over here. I would just go pick him up and have him for weeks at a time,” she said. “It feels like a piece of me has been ripped out.”
Bee came up missing Nov. 17 after a truancy officer ticketed the boy’s mother, Lisa Bee, at her home on Sapp St. The District 108 officer saw Bee flee on his bicycle that day. Bee was reported as missing by his mother the next day, after the officer arrived to ticket her again for her son’s absence that day from school.
Pekin Police Chief John Dossey said Bee spent the night at friend’s home before being reported missing the next day. The 4’6″, 110 lb. boy was last seen wearing a red and gray shirt, blue jeans and red Nike shoes. He was not carrying a cell phome, and had no money.
“We’ve done all of the things we’re required to do through policy. Several agencies from all levels have some involvement,” Dossey said. “We’re tapping into all resources and continue to seek info and put info out from anyone who hears or sees anything.”
An Amber Alert may not be issued without evidence of an abduction, but Bee is considered a runaway and is listed asa Missing and Endangered Child. Clausen said Bee has runaway from his Pekin home before, but always to a friend’s house.
“We know that somebody knows something and we need them to tell us, so that we can bring this to a close,” Dosseysaid. “So far, we have no new developments, but we continue to follow the leads as they come in.”
Unfortunately, many leads have been rumor-based and one was blatantly false. A Manito woman faces misdemeanor charges for obstructing justice by providing a “deliberately false lead”. Source: ChronicleIllinois

Pekin police post large signs with Robert Bee's picture

The Pekin Police Department announced Thursday it has erected three large signs bearing Bee's picture and a request to call with any solid information of his whereabouts.
The signs were provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the department stated. One stands at Derby and Second streets, not far from Bee's home at 203 Sapp St., where he was last seen Nov. 17.
"There have been no confirmed sightings of (the boy) since that time," the department said in its news release. Nor has anything come from the "hundreds of leads in various locations throughout central Illinois" that Pekin's and other police agencies, including state and federal, have followed in their search.
"Detectives have conducted numerous searches of homes and vehicles, have interviewed numerous individuals, and have conducted several controlled searches of properties in the area," the Pekin department stated.
"Someone knows something" about Bee's disappearance, police Chief John Dossey has said.
The department has issued a $1,000 reward for information leading to the boy through its CrimeStoppers program. Anyone with useful information is urged to call CrimeStoppers at 673-9000 or the department at 346-3132. Source: pjstar
