Cops have issued an urgent re-appeal in their bid to trace 12-year-old Jamie-Lee Harvey, who has been missing from Ayr for four days.

The youngster was last seen around 3.30pm on Tuesday, March 14, at the town's train station, where she boarded a train towards Glasgow.

It is thought Jamie-Lee may have got off the train at Irvine, and she is known to frequent Irvine, Kilwinning and Saltcoats.

Police searches are ongoing throughout Ayrshire and also in Glasgow city centre, as the schoolgirl has perviously travelled to the Union Street area.

She is described as 5ft in height and of medium build with long, light, brown hair. When she was last seen she was wearing black clothing including a padded jacket, jumper, leggings and trainers.

Inspector Alex Beagrie of Irvine Police Station said: "Although Jamie-Lee has been reported missing before, she has never been away for this length of time. She is only 12 years of age and she has not been seen since Tuesday.

"We are very concerned. Searches and enquiries are ongoing to trace her as soon as possible to ensure that she is safe and well.

"If you have seen Jamie-Lee since Tuesday morning or if you have any information regarding her whereabouts, we urge you to contact us as soon as possible through 101 quoting incident number 2277 of March 14, 2023
