The devastated mum of a missing Sunderland man has made a heartfelt appeal for him to come home.
Heartbroken Tracey Williams reported her 18 year-old son Kieran Williams missing after he failed to return home in Esplanade West, Sunderland, on Monday, April 18. Now, as his family and officers become increasingly concerned for Kieran's welfare, mum Tracey has pleaded for her son to come home or for anyone who knows his whereabouts to come forward.
She said: "Son, please come home or at least let us know you are safe. We are worried sick and just want to know you are okay. Please, if anyone has seen our Kieran recently, I'd beg you to come forward and tell police. I just want to know my boy is okay."

Det Chief Inspector Sean McGuigan said: "We are becoming increasingly concerned for Kieran as it is out of character for him to be uncontactable for this length of time. We are supporting Kieran's family at this difficult time and I would ask anyone who knows of his whereabouts to do the right thing and contact police."
Kieran is described as being white, 5ft 10, with dark brown hair, brown eyes and of slim build. He was last seen wearing the same jacket as the photo released.
Anyone with any information about Kieran's whereabouts is asked to contact police via the Tell Us Something pages on the Northumbria Police website or contact 101. You can also report anonymously to Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111.
