Neil Thomas Little

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help in locating a missing father and son.

Neil Thomas Little (DOB 8/29/64), of 945 NE 47th Avenue, Naples has allegedly abducted his son, Everett Thomas Little (DOB 11/21/99), of 1860-610, Concordia Lakes Circle, Fort Myers.

Due to the nature of the situation, detectives with the Lee County Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit have assumed the investigation. Everett is not believed to be in any immediate danger, although Neil Little does have a series of health issues that may hinder his ability to care for Everett, officials said.

A third-degree felony arrest warrant for Interfering with the custody of a child has been issued for Neil Little’s arrest.

Deputies were notified of the incident on Sunday, October 10, when Neil Little failed to meet his ex-wife, and mother of Everett, Shannon Little, to exchange custody of their child. The two have a court ordered 50/50 custody agreement.
