AN URGENT search is underway to find a missing teenager who was last seen in Dorset nearly a month ago.
Yanqian Lin, aged 17, was last seen at the address where she had been staying in Bournemouth on Tuesday, May 18. She was reported missing on Thursday, May 20.
Dorset Police say the Chinese national is described as being around five feet two inches tall and of slim build with black bob-length hair and she wears glasses.
Inspector Tracy Santoni, of Bournemouth police, said: “While we have no information to suggest Yanqian has come to any harm and all indications are she left the address of her own accord, she has not been seen for some time and we are keen to find her to make sure she is OK.
“I would urge anyone with information as to her whereabouts to please contact us.
“Finally I would appeal to Yanqian if you see this appeal to please contact us and let us know where you are as we all just want to ensure you are safe and well.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Dorset Police at www.dorset.police.uk, via email 101@dorset.pnn.police.uk or by calling 101, quoting occurrence number 55210079922.
