Police are growing increasingly concerned for a missing teenager from Swindon, as searches continue.

15-year-old Rylee was last seen in the Pinehurst area of Swindon at around 8.30pm on Wednesday, June 26.

The teenager hasn't been seen since then, and Wiltshire Police are now urging anyone who may know where he is to not approach Rylee but to call 999 instead.

Rylee has been described as a white male aged 15, with short blond hair and blue eyes.

He was last seen wearing a blue baseball jacket with leather sleeves, dark jeans and dark-coloured leather ankle boots.

"We're growing increasingly concerned for the whereabouts of a teenager from Swindon," said a spokesperson for Wiltshire Police.

"We would urge people not to approach Rylee but to call us on 999 quoting log number 185 of yesterday's date (26/06)."
