UPDATE: Alexis Fuller has been found safe according to the Des Moines Police Department

DES MOINES - It has been over two months since 17-year-old Alexis Fuller disappeared and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) is asking for the public’s help to bring her home.

Alexis went missing on July 12, 2025, after receiving medical care in Des Moines, Iowa. Investigators say Alexis was last seen wearing blue medical-style scrubs and want to emphasize that she may be in need of medical attention.

Alexis’s father, John Fuller, shared there has been no communication from Alexis since her disappearance, and that the family is deeply concerned for her well-being. John wants Alexis to know how much she is loved and missed, and that her family just wants to know that she is safe.

Alexis is described as 5 feet 2 inches tall, weighed 100 pounds when she was last seen, and has blue eyes and blonde hair. She may go by the name Lexi. Authorities believe that Alexis may stay in the local or surrounding areas.

To generate new leads in her case, NCMEC and its partner GSTV, a national digital video network, will display Alexis’s poster on gas station screens across Iowa during the month of October.

If you have any information about Alexis or her disappearance, please contact NCMEC at 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678) or the Des Moines Police Department (Iowa) at 1-515-283-4811.
