Police Appeal For Help Tracing Missing 14-Year-Old Girl

Police are appealing for help in tracing 14-year-old Elisa Geremias-Lorenzo, who went missing from Dundee.

Police confirmed the teenager left her home in the Stobswell area at about 08:30 on Wednesday morning and went to her morning classes at Morgan Academy. She is understood to have left with a friend after lunch. She has not been seen since, and police said there is "significant concern" for her well-being.

She is described as 5'4" tall, with long blonde hair and a very pale complexion.

When last seen she was wearing a navy parka coat with a hood, a white blouse with a Morgan Academy school tie and black trousers. She is said to have been carrying a pink Nike wet drawstring gym bag.

Police Scotland added that currently there is nothing to suggest the teenager has been the victim of crime, but they are concerned for her well-being as she is considered to be "very vulnerable".

Anyone with information which may help find Elisa has been asked to call police on 101 or speak to any officer.
