Police have launched a fresh appeal to find a missing teenager from Herne Bay following her disappearance last night.

The alarm was raised after Grace Fisher went missing at about 6pm yesterday (Wednesday).

It is the fifth time the 15-year-old has been reported missing in the space of eight days.

The 15-year-old is described as 5ft 3, of slim build with long straight brown and ginger hair.

She is believed to be wearing a brown faux fur jacket, lilac t-shirt, navy blue hooded top with pink writing, plain black leggings and black Nike trainers whilst also carrying a brown and black chequered handbag.

Officers are said to be concerned for her wellbeing as they carry out “extensive enquiries” to find her.

The first appeal to help find her was launched last Wednesday, when she disappeared from the River area of Dover the previous day.

She was found safe later that day, but vanished again last Friday. Police said at the time she had last been seen in Hermitage Lane, Aylesford, walking towards Barming at about 6pm.

After she was subsequently found, another appeal went out a day later – with the teen this time being last seen in the Stanley Road area of Herne Bay at about 2.30pm.

The fourth plea to help find Grace came on Monday after she went missing at about 4.15pm – again from the Herne Bay area.

She returned the following day, only to go missing again yesterday.

Police are urging anyone who has seen her or who knows where she might be to get in touch with information as soon as possible, and say they are treating this case as a priority.

Anyone with information should call 999, quoting reference 07-1167.
