There is increasing concern for a 15-year-old girl from Fife who has been missing since Monday.
Elle Marshall, from Inverkeithing, was last seen at 2.30pm in the Links Street area of Kirkcaldy, and police say fears are now growing for her welfare.
Officers are appealing for the help of the public as they bid to locate the teenager, who is 5ft 8ins tall, of slim build and has long brown hair. They do not know what clothes she is wearing.
Sergeant Katie Blackwell of Dalgety Bay Police Station said: "Elle has been reported missing to police and we are becoming increasingly concerned for her. She is known to have links in both the South West Fife and Kirkcaldy areas.
"I would urge anyone who may have seen Elle or knows where she is to please contact police immediately."
"If Elle reads this appeal, I too would ask that she gets in touch with Police or her family to let us know that she is safe.”
Anyone information can contact Dalgety Bay Police Station via 101, quoting incident number 3350 of 4th July, 2019.
