Police issue urgent appeal to find missing schoolgirl last seen with boy on train leaving London

Gracie Drake - (Metropolitan Police)

Police are concerned for the welfare of a missing 14-year old schoolgirl after threats were allegedly made towards her by an older male.

Gracie Drake vanished from her home in West Drayton, west London and was last known to be in the company of a boy called Harry on a train to Kent.

She spoke to her grandmother at 9.45am on Friday when she said she would be visiting her at work but never turned up.

A friend later heard from the teenager at 9pm via Snapchat and reported to officers that she understood that Gracie was on a train leaving London.

Gracie may have connections to Frank Park in Bexleyheath.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “Officers are concerned about Gracie’s connection to an older male who is alleged to have made threats toward her.”

Gracie is 5ft 5in in height and wearing black flared trousers, a black t-shirt with a white rim around the collar, a black puffer jacket with black fur around the hood, and black Nike trainers.

She has very long dark brown hair and blue eyes.

Enquiries are ongoing to locate Gracie including analysis of available CCTV.

Anyone who may have seen Gracie or who has information about her whereabouts or the people with her, is urged to call 101 quoting REF 01/1143888
