Hendrickson disappeared after he left his Tucson home near the 200 block of East Delano Street to spend the night at the North Side home of his babysitter's cousin, a middle-aged man, in the 700 block of West Paris Promenade Street while his mother and aunt were out of town.
Detectives said the man told them Hendrickson left that home during the night. A four-year-old nephew of the middle-aged man, who also was staying at the home, was the last person to see Hendrickson. He told police that Hendrickson said he was going to walk home, which was about a mile away. Hendrickson was last seen at about 8:00 p.m. at a Circle K near North Oracle and West Grand roads.
Hendrickson does not have a history of running away from his home. The possibility that he is a runaway is slim, according to the family, because there were not any problems at home. Foul play is suspected in his disappearance.
