Police have issued an appeal for help in tracing a 13-year-old girl who has been missing from her home in Oxford since Tuesday.

Sian Mooney was last seen at her home in Cutteslowe at 8pm that day.

She is described as white, slim, with dark brown shoulder length hair and was wearing a black long sleeved top, leggings and denim shorts.

She may have had a black Nike hooded top.

Sgt Claire Dando said: “It is really unlike Sian to be away from home for this length of time so we are concerned about her welfare. Although she lives in Cutteslowe she is known to have links to Headington and Wood Farm.

Anyone who knows her whereabouts is urged to contact police on 0845 8 505 505.
