LA VISTA, Neb. (KMTV) — Tammi Larsen, the mother of a La Vista boy who has been missing since 2021, has filed a civil lawsuit against the Papillion La Vista Community School District.

Ryan Larsen was 12 years old when he walked out of La Vista West Elementary School during the school day.

He had previously been diagnosed with a seizure disorder, autism and Tourette's syndrome.

The complaint claims the district was negligent in supervising Ryan, leaving him alone even when he had a history of running away from school and that a school employee didn't attempt to stop him from leaving when spotted.

Tammi Larsen's petition to declare him legally dead was denied in Sarpy County Court in April.
