Police are appealing for information as to the whereabouts of three teenagers who went missing on Tuesday night in Lancashire.

Leona Derbyshire, 14, Matej Bulander, 14, and Allyx Queen, 16, were last seen around Chorley Road in the Withnell area of Chorley at about 8.30pm last night, Lancashire Police said.

The force believe the youngsters, who all have links to Blackburn, Coventry and London, are together.

PC Mark Price, of South Police, said: “We are concerned about the welfare of these three children and we need to find them as soon as possible.
