Police searching for a missing teenage girl from Nottinghamshire say they believe she's travelled to Walsall.

Nottinghamshire Police say they are growing increasingly concerned for the welfare of 14-year-old Kimberley Chege, who hasn't been seen by her family for over a week.

Officers released the last known CCTV image of her on Sunday (31 July), recorded in Nottingham city centre in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Detective Chief Inspector Ruby Burrow, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:

“We are growing increasingly concerned for Kimberley’s welfare and are appealing for her or anyone who knows where she is to come forward and speak to us.

“Her family have now not seen her for more than a week and are understandably extremely upset by her disappearance.

“They and I would like to reassure her that she is not in any trouble. We just want to speak to find her and bring her home as quickly as possible."

Kimberley is described as around 5ft 7ins tall and of a large build. She has very long braided hair and brown eyes.

The last known image of her shows the dark coloured clothing and jacket she may still be wearing.

A spokesperson from Nottinghamshire Police has appealed for anyone who may have seen her, to get in touch:

"If you have seen Kimberley or have any information about her whereabouts, please contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 784 of 26 July 2022."
