Urgent Appeal: Vulnerable Teen George, 15, Missing from Watchet

Police have launched an urgent public appeal to help locate 15-year-old George, who has been missing from Watchet, Somerset, since Monday, April 21.

George is described as vulnerable, slim, around 5ft 5ins tall, with short mousy-blond hair and a distinctive scar above his right eye. He was last seen wearing a grey and blue tracksuit.

Although George has made brief contact with family members since his disappearance, he has not disclosed his location, and authorities are growing increasingly concerned for his welfare.

He is known to have links to Castle Cary and Wincanton in Somerset, and also to areas in Essex. Avon and Somerset Police are urging anyone who has seen George or knows where he may be to come forward as a matter of urgency.

A police spokesperson said: “George is just 15 and considered vulnerable. While he has contacted family, he hasn’t revealed where he is, and we’re extremely concerned for his wellbeing. Please check any CCTV or dashcam footage if you live in the areas he is linked to.”

? If you have any information that could assist police, please call 999 immediately quoting reference 5225112174, or call 101 with any non-urgent details.

The public is also encouraged to share George’s photo and description to raise awareness and aid in the search.
