A search was expected to continue Tuesday for a missing 11-year-old Menifee boy last seen over the weekend.

Terry Dewayne Smith is described by law enforcement authorities as an “at-risk” autistic child missing from his home in the 33000 block of Helen Lane, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said.

He has blond hair and blue eyes and was last seen wearing blue basketball shorts. He went missing sometime between 7:30 p.m. Saturday and 10:30 a.m. Sunday, sheriff’s deputies said.
