Police have issued a third appeal for information about a missing teenager.

Tye Poyser-Harding, 17, was reported missing from Sittingbourne on Monday, July 15.

However, he is understood to have recently been in the Central Park area of Dartford.

He is described as being 5ft 9ins, of a medium build and with short blond hair.

When he was last seen, he was reported to be wearing a baseball cap and a dark, long sleeved top.

Detective Constable Stewart Catt, from Kent Police’s Missing and Child Exploitation Team, said: "While we have received sightings of Tye, he remains a missing person and it is extremely important we locate him so we can check on his well-being.

"We know he has connections on Sheppey, in Dartford and Folkestone and I am confident someone in the county has information that can help us locate him.

"I would urge anyone with information, no matter how small it may seem, to call us on 101 quoting reference 15-1922."

Police first issued an appeal for information about a week after Tye's disappearance.

A second appeal was issued at the beginning of August.
