Tennessee police are searching a Kentucky landfill in connection with the disappearance of a missing 15-year-old autistic boy. 

Investigators with the Sumner County Sheriff’s Office, with assistance from Kentucky State Police, are searching a landfill in Kentucky where trash went from the neighborhood of Sebastian Rogers.
