Teenager Missing From Grimsby Treatment Centre

A teenager with health issues who’s been missing for a week from a Grimsby treatment centre may be in the North-East. Humberside Police think 19 year old Katie Free could be with her boyfriend in Darlington or Hartlepool. Detective Inspector Jim Fairgrieve overseeing the search for Katie said: “Katie has been missing before and she was located safely and promptly. “Katie’s welfare is our main priority and our aim is to achieve that result again and as quickly as possible. As time moves on our concern is growing due to her ongoing health issues. It is important that we locate Katie so that we can ensure she receives the support she urgently needs. We are appealing to Katie to make contact, either with her family or the emergency services at the earliest opportunity. We would also ask the public to help us by calling us to inform us if they see Katie and provide us with details of her whereabouts.”
