PEOPLE in south Worcestershire are urged to be on the lookout for a teenage girl from Worcester who has been missing for three weeks.

Sixteen-year-old Emma Collier disappeared on Wednesday, May 9, but Worcester police believe she is now staying in Evesham and have appealed for anyone with information to come forward.

The teenager was last seen with 15-year-old friend Sarah Spencer as the pair left for school. Sarah returned home on Saturday, May 19.

Fiona Harrison, of Worcester police, has appealed for anyone who knows anything about Emma to contact officers straight away.

"We're keen to talk to anyone who has seen or knows where Emma is at the moment," she said.

The teenager is described as white, 5ft 4in tall, slim with blue eyes and dark brown collar-length hair in a bob style and a centre parting.

She is also said to speak with a London accent and when she went missing she was wearing black trousers, a yellow sweatshirt, navy polo shirt and a grey sweatshirt with hood.
