Fred Elder, Kavian’s father, said a nationwide search was launched and his son is considered absent without leave.

He told WHBQ-TV in Memphis he had this message for his son: “You have to face up to what you done but I will be there with you and in hand…step for step with you to deal with this situation overall.”
