Police have said they are concerned for the welfare of a teenager who has been missing for nearly a month.

Officers have re-appealed for help tracing Luca, 16, who was last seen at his home in Watford on May 23.

It is believed he may be somewhere near Dagenham.

Luca is around 5ft 8in tall and unlike his picture he has black collar-length hair.

A police spokesperson said: “We are continuing to appeal for the public’s help to trace a teenager who has gone missing from Watford.

“Extensive enquiries have been carried out to trace him, as officers remain concerned for his welfare."

This is not the first time he went missing, after which an appeal was shared in April.

Police urged anyone who is with him now or has seen him in the last few moments to call 999.

Alternatively any information can be reported via 101.
