Police have asked residents in the Burnham-On-Sea area to report any sightings of a schoolgirl who has been missing since Tuesday (25th November).
Jessica Buttigieg, 15, of Locking in Weston, failed to return home after school on Tuesday.
The last sighting of her was as she got off a school bus between 3 and 4pm on Tuesday 25th November in Locking Village, by the Post Office.
Police say they were possible sightings of her later in the evening in Weston town centre area, at Tesco and McDonalds.
DS Phil Clarke said: “We have been making enquiries and speaking with her school and her friends but we are growing increasingly concerned given her age.”
“I would appeal to Jessica to get in touch with us on 101 or to call her family. She’s not in any trouble, we just want to make sure she is all right and reassure her family who are very worried about her.”
Jessica’s parents, Jonathan and Jayne Buttigieg, said: “Jessica, we love you, please get in touch to let us know you are OK. If you don’t want to speak to us please call Grandma or Nanny, we just want to know you are all right.”
DS Clarke said Jessica is described as white, about 5ft 4ins tall and slim, with shoulder-length blonde hair.
When last seen she was wearing grey trousers, a maroon sweatshirt and a black hooded top.
