15-YEAR-OLD CONNOR HAS BEEN MISSING FOR DAYS — POLICE ISSUE URGENT APPEAL

HIS FAMILY AND POLICE ARE DESPERATE FOR ANY INFORMATION THAT COULD HELP BRING HIM HOME

A 15-year-old boy has been missing for several days, prompting an urgent appeal from police as concerns continue to grow for his welfare.

Connor was last seen at around 9am on Thursday in Llanharan, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, according to South Wales Police.

As the search continues, officers are asking members of the public to think carefully about anything they may have seen that could help locate him.

CONCERN IS GROWING

Police say they are increasingly concerned about Connor’s welfare and are appealing urgently for information.

At this stage, authorities have not publicly provided an explanation for his disappearance.

The focus remains on finding him and establishing where he may have gone after he was last seen in Llanharan.

WHAT CONNOR LOOKS LIKE

Police describe Connor as:

• 15 years old
• Approximately 5ft 5in tall
• Of slight build
• With black hair

Officers have also said that Connor appears younger than his age, a detail they hope members of the public will keep in mind when looking out for him.

Police have released photographs of Connor as part of the appeal.

POLICE ASK THE PUBLIC TO COME FORWARD

South Wales Police are urging anyone who has seen Connor, or who may have information about his whereabouts, to contact them.

Even information that may seem small or insignificant could potentially help investigators piece together his movements.

Police are asking anyone with information to quote reference number 2600317807.

ANONYMOUS INFORMATION CAN ALSO BE SHARED

Anyone who may have information but does not want to speak directly to police can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The charity allows members of the public to provide information without giving their name.

A SEARCH THAT NEEDS ANSWERS

For now, there is no confirmed public explanation for why Connor has not returned.

Police have not said that he has come to harm, and no such conclusion should be assumed while the search remains ongoing.

What matters most is finding him safely.

Connor is just 15 years old, and police are asking the public across the area to remain alert and share any information that could help.

If you have seen Connor or believe you may have information about where he could be, contact South Wales Police quoting 2600317807.
