Police have launched an urgent search for three teenage boys after they vanished from a tram stop in Manchester.

Riley, Noah, and Kian, aged 12 and 13, were last seen at the Stretford Metrolink stop at 6.50pm on Saturday.

Police have appealed for anyone who may have seen the trio to come forward, as they are ‘becoming increasingly concerned’ about the boys.

It’s unknown whether the boys are still together or if they parted ways after the tram stop sighting.

Riley, 13, has blonde curly hair and stands at around 4ft 9ins, he was wearing a green North Face coat and a black Adidas tracksuit top and bottoms.

Noah, 12, who has dark hair, was wearing a similar black tracksuit, a sweatshirt, and a black jacket with Reebok written on the back.

Kian, also 12, was seen in a purple t-shirt but also wearing a black tracksuit and black trainers. He is also blonde and around 5ft 5ins tall.

Police insist they just want to make sure they are ‘safe and well’ and asked anyone with information to call 101.
