🚨 Missing Boy in Burnaby, British Columbia – Kai Pavlovic, 11
Police in British Columbia continue to search for Kai Pavlovic, an 11-year-old boy missing from the Burnaby area since late September. The Burnaby RCMP has released new photos and a heartfelt statement from Kai’s family in New Zealand.
On September 26, 2025, Burnaby RCMP received a request for a well-being check for Kai. Investigators have spoken with Kai’s family members and have reason to believe he is staying with a caretaker who police are actively working to identify.
“We believe there are people who know who this caretaker is, and where they are located, and we are appealing to them to come forward and speak to police,” said Burnaby RCMP Media Relations Officer Cpl. Laura Hirst. “Our number one priority is to find Kai and confirm his safety and well-being.”
Investigators are also hoping to speak to community members who may have had interactions with Kai as part of his daily routine — in particular, adults or parents whose children have been participating in playdates, sports, and/or extracurricular activities with Kai, as well as any operators or instructors from sports or activities in which he has been involved.
“Our officers have been working non-stop to locate Kai and are employing a number of techniques to gather information and help move the investigation forward,” said Cpl. Hirst. “The best way for the public to help us is to keep an eye out for Kai and contact us immediately if they have any information on his whereabouts.”
📌 Family Statement from New Zealand
“Kai is a bright, curious, outgoing and kind little boy who loves to climb trees, build forts and learn to sail. He is a friend to all animals and particularly adores horses, cats and dogs. Kai’s family in New Zealand love him dearly, and they are asking anyone with any information on Kai’s location to please immediately contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.”
The family has also created a Givealittle fundraising page to support travel and search costs.
