Boy still hasn’t shown up nearly a week after he went missing from school

Police are urgently searching for a 12-year-old boy who never returned home from school on Wednesday.

Riley, from Fareham, was reported missing that afternoon after failing to return home from classes.

Hampshire Police, who haven’t shared Riley’s surname, are now calling on anyone with information about his location to come forward.

Riley is described as white, around 5ft 5ins tall, of slim build and with short, dark brown hair.

He also has a scar on his upper left lip.

He could still be in the Fareham area, but police say he also has links to Basingstoke and Coventry.
