Seventeen-year-old London Thomas has been reported missing, and her family and community are urgently pleading for help in locating her. London was last seen on Sunday, April 6, 2025, on Carlysle Street in Inkster, Michigan. Since that evening, no one has heard from her, and the silence has become agonizing for those who love her. Her disappearance is entirely out of character, and every passing hour without a lead has deepened the concern for her safety.
London stands at 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighs approximately 115 pounds. She was last seen wearing pink Crocs, black leggings, and a hoodie—either a black one featuring a Jason mask graphic or a dark green hoodie with the message “1-800 Mental Health Matters” across the front. Her unique clothing may help jog the memory of someone who might have seen her. At the time of her disappearance, London was not known to have any travel plans or engagements that would have led her away from home. In fact, she was expected to be spending her Sunday evening close to home, making her sudden vanishing all the more disturbing.
London Thomas Detroit MI Missing Person: Help Locate Her
Investigators have confirmed that her cellphone last pinged in the area of Ann Arbor Trail, between Middlebelt Road and Inkster Road. This location is a few miles from where she was last physically seen. After that brief digital footprint, all communication ceased—her phone has remained off since that last ping. No calls, texts, or social media posts have surfaced. She has not reached out to friends, responded to messages, or checked in with any known contacts. With every communication channel silent, her loved ones are terrified something serious may have happened.
London is not the type to disappear without letting someone know where she’s going. She maintains regular contact with her mother, friends, and other relatives. She is deeply caring, emotionally present, and has a close-knit circle of people who know her well. For someone as attentive and connected as London to go completely silent is alarming—and heartbreaking.
Her family, overwhelmed with fear and uncertainty, has been doing everything in their power to find her. They’ve reached out to police, distributed flyers, posted online, and made countless phone calls to anyone who might have even a sliver of information. They’ve checked hospitals, shelters, and other local facilities. But no one has seen her, and no official leads have surfaced. It is a situation that every parent dreads—a child missing, and no answers in sight.
London’s mother has expressed her anguish and desperation in tearful statements. She is asking the community to pay attention, to look closely, and to speak up if they know anything at all. She believes someone, somewhere, must have seen London or noticed something unusual that day or in the days since. Perhaps someone saw her walking, getting into a vehicle, or standing alone near the Ann Arbor Trail area. Perhaps there’s a piece of surveillance footage that hasn’t been reviewed or a witness who has yet to realize the significance of what they saw.
London is more than just a name on a flyer. She is full of life, love, and empathy. She’s the kind of teen who checks in on friends who are struggling, lends an ear when someone needs to talk, and advocates for mental health and kindness among her peers. The green hoodie she may have been wearing—with the words “1-800 Mental Health Matters”—isn’t just fashion, it’s a reflection of who she is and what she believes in. Her open-hearted nature has made her beloved among those who know her, but it also makes her disappearance even more painful.
The Westland Police Department is currently leading the investigation. They are asking for the public’s help in providing any information that could assist in finding London. They urge residents and businesses in Inkster and the surrounding areas to check any available security footage from the evening of April 6 through the following days. Home surveillance systems, Ring doorbells, traffic cams, and business cameras may hold a crucial clue that leads to London’s safe return. Even if you think something you saw or heard is insignificant, authorities encourage you to report it—what may seem small could end up being the missing piece of the puzzle.
The area between Carlysle Street and Ann Arbor Trail is of particular interest to investigators. If you live, work, or travel through that corridor, think back to that Sunday. Did you see a teenage girl walking alone? Did you notice anyone who appeared disoriented, in distress, or hurried? Did a young girl matching London’s description ask to borrow a phone or get into a car? Any detail, no matter how minor it seems, could help move the investigation forward.
This is a call to action. It’s not just for law enforcement or family members—it’s for everyone. Missing person cases are often solved by attentive citizens who speak up. One social media share, one phone call, one piece of security footage can mean the difference between continued uncertainty and a reunion that a family is praying for.
Please take a moment to look at London’s photo. Remember what she was wearing. Talk to your friends, your kids, your neighbors. Check any footage you may have. Help spread her story, not just locally, but across platforms and communities. Awareness is a powerful tool, and it is what the Thomas family needs right now.
If you have seen London or know anything about her whereabouts, please call the Westland Police Department at (734) 722-9600. You can also dial 9-1-1 if you believe it is an emergency or a confirmed sighting. Every lead will be taken seriously.
Time is critical, and her loved ones are holding onto hope with every passing second. No family should have to wonder where their child is or whether they’re safe. With the support of the public, there is still a chance that London can be found, safe and alive. Please, help bring her home.
