Lowestoft:  Missing 12-Year-Old Boy

24th August 2012, 10:31

Police are appealing for help in tracing a 12-year-old boy who went missing on Thursday 23 August.

Reece Bolton was last seen at Kensington Gardens in Lowestoft around 1.30pm yesterday, when he went off on his bike, and was reported as missing to police around 10.30pm last night.

Although he has gone missing before, police are concerned for his safety as he would have usually returned within a short space of time and his disappearance is out of character.

Reece is described as white, about 4ft 10ins tall, of medium build with short dark hair which has a swirly pattern cut into the back. He was riding a blue BMX with a Union Jack on it and it’s likely that he is wearing tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt and hooded top.

Police have been searching likely locations for Reece for the past 12 hours and have been making enquiries with family members however he has not been found.

Searches are continuing this morning and officers are now asking Reece or anyone who may have seen him since yesterday, or anyone with information about where he is now, to call the duty sergeant at Lowestoft Police Station on 101.
