Police are appealing for sightings of a teenage boy missing from Carlisle.

Peter Thompson, 16, was last seen in the Botchergate area of the city yesterday, Tuesday, September 5.

Peter has links to west Cumbria so may be in that part of the county.

He is 5ft 7ins tall, with brown hair, brown eyes and is clean shaven. He was last seen wearing a black hoodie and black trainers.

Anyone who sees Peter is asked to contact police on 101.

If Peter sees this appeal he is asked to get in touch on the same number.
