Schoolgirl, 13, missing from Wishaw hospital enters sixth day as police appeal for help finding her

Police are still searching for a teenage girl who went missing from hospital five days ago.

Kerys Lynch, 13, disappeared from Wishaw General Hospital on Wednesday.

She was last seen at the facility at around 9.25pm, and police have been searching for her after she was reported missing by staff.

The teenager has connections with both the Lanark and Ayrshire areas, where she may have travelled to by bus or train.

Officers are keen to trace Kerys as soon as possible and have released a description of the teenager in the hope someone may have seen her in the last five days or so.

Kerys is described as white, 5ft 2ins tall and is of a medium build, with long hair that is dyed red and black.

When last seen she was wearing a green short sleeved t-shirt, grey leggings and black and white Vans trainers.

Anyone who may have seen Kerys since Wednesday or have any information that could help trace her, is urged to contact Police Scotland via 101 quoting incident number 3809 of 14th July.

UPDATE - Kerys has been found safe and well.
