POLICE are appealing for a missing Northolt teenager who ran away from home nearly two months ago.

Reece Cruz left his home at lunch time on Wednesday February 2, taking his Xbox with him. The 15-year-old was spotted a few times at the beginning of March close to Hove Park School, in Brighton, which he used to attend, but has not been seen since.

He is described as a light-skinned black boy of slim build with a large afro hair style.

Detective Constable Sharon Porter, of Missing Persons Unit, said: “Reece has lots of friends in the Hove area and it is possible that he has stayed with some of them. Reece is not in any trouble but we need to know he is safe and well. If Reece is reading this, please contact me so that we can talk about your situation.”

Anyone with any information about where Reece might be should contact the Missing Persons Unit on 020 8246 1040 or Missing Person on 0500 700 700.
