Investigators with the FBI and Fayetteville police searched a home Monday morning connected to a case involving two missing people, officials said. 

Police said family members told them Blake Deven has not been seen for “several years” and would now be 17 years old. London Deven, who is now 27, has not been seen since 2019, according to police. Both lived with the same foster family, who moved to Fayetteville in 2015.

“While conducting interviews in a separate police investigation, several members of Blake’s family reported they have not seen him in several years. On March 27, 2024, the Fayetteville Police Department and the FBI searched three locations in Fayetteville, North Carolina, as part of the expanding investigation to find Blake,” FBI officials said.

Investigators closed Berriedale Drive in Fayetteville Monday as they searched a home in a residential neighborhood. There was a heavy police presence, including FBI agents, a forensics team and K9 units. 

Blake’s biological mother, Felicia Chandler, posted to Facebook last week asking for the public to help finding her son. Blake’s birth name is Trenton Dewayne Shuler, Chandler said, and was changed when “he was tak[en] from me” and given to a foster family.

The FBI told Spectrum News 1 that they have searched the home once before. The Deven family no longer lives at the house. 

Police said the Deven family moved to Fayetteville in 2015. They are asking anyone who has had contact with the family or Blake since 2015 to contact investigators as police work to figure out the timeline of Blake and London’s disappearances. 

“Due to the unusual circumstances of his reported disappearance, the Fayetteville Police Department’s Homicide Unit, which also investigates missing and endangered persons, is leading the investigation,” police said.

Last week, Fayetteville police said that they learned about London Deven’s disappearance. London would now be 27 and was last seen in 2019, according to police.
