Littlehampton teenager missing

Chen Xin Zhang, 18, who lives in care in the town, has not been seen since January 5.

Sgt Roy Hodder, from Littlehampton’s neighbourhood response team, said: “We don’t necessarily think that Chen has come to any harm, but we are anxious to hear from him so we can satisfy ourselves that he is safe.”

Chen is described as 5ft 9in tall, of slim build, clean shaven, and has black, shoulder-length hair.

Sgt Hodder continued: “He has not been known to go missing like this before, which is why there is some concern about his welfare. If anyone knows of his whereabouts then we would ask them to contact police as soon as possible on 0845 60 70 999.”
