Urgent appeal for help as schoolboy missing for two days

An urgent appeal for help to find a missing schoolboy has been issued by police. Eric Lin has not been seen for two days.

The 14-year-old was last seen in the Bell Crescent area of Manchester, near Beswick, on Sunday evening (July 2).

Following his disappearance, Greater Manchester Police immediately shared an appeal in a bid to help trace him. Cheshire Police also said on Monday that enquiries had suggested he caught a bus to Cheshire.

Eric was last seen almost two days ago, at around 7.45pm, on Sunday. A number of images of the teenager have now been released, including a new image shared by Cheshire Constabulary as efforts continue to locate him.
