CONCERN is growing for a teenager who has not been seen for more than a fortnight.

Victoria Sinclair, 14, moved to Kent at the end of last year but has spent most of her life in Middlesbrough. She was last seen leaving her home in Whitstable at about 7.15pm on Friday, May 31.

Police think she may be in the Middlesbrough area and have asked anyone who may have seen her to get in touch.

She is described as white, 5ft 4in, heavy build, with a fair complexion and long dark brown hair.

When last seen, her hair was tied up in a ponytail and she was wearing a black skirt, thin black blouse, black Dr Martins and was carrying a small black rucksack.

Victoria wears round dark- framed glasses and black leather wrist bands inset with metal studs.

She tends to dress in a gothic style wearing predominantly black clothes, black lipstick and black eye make-up, and has recently taken to painting a black snake on the side of her face.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Canterbury Police on (01227) 762055
