Family and police 'increasingly concerned' over 13-year-old Lambeth boy missing for 12 days

Family and police are 'increasingly concerned' for the welfare of 13-year-old Jerome Ajuwa, from Lambeth who has been missing for 12 days.

Police are renewing appeals for information to find a teenage boy who has been missing from his Lambeth home for 12 days.

Jerome Ajuwa, 13, was last seen in the Kennington area on Saturday, 21 May. It is not known where he may have travelled to after this sighting.

Jerome's family and officers are growing increasingly concerned for his welfare due to his young age and the amount of time that he has now been missing.

He is described as black, 5ft 7ins tall and of a slim build.

When Jerome was last seen, he was wearing black jeans, a black long sleeve top, a navy blue 'Superdry' tracksuit top and blue and white 'Nike Huarache' trainers.

Officers are urging Jerome to make contact with either his family or police, so that they know he is safe.

Anyone who has seen Jerome or has any information as to his whereabouts is asked to contact officers at Lambeth via 101. Alternatively call the charity Missing People on 116000.
