15-year-old missing from North Hykeham for 39 days

Police believe he may have left Lincolnshire

By Local Democracy Reporter

Police are still looking for a 15-year-old boy from North Hykeham who has now been missing for 39 days.

Hoang Nguyen was first reported missing on Sunday, July 26, with officers thinking he may have left the area to travel to Leicestershire or London.

A renewed appeal to find Hoang has been launched, with police asking anyone in Lincolnshire or the surrounding areas of Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire to help.

The Metropolitan Police has also been urged to join in the appeal, due to him potentially travelling to London.

Police are now “extremely concerned” given his young age and the length of time Hoang has been missing for.

New images have emerged showing the hoodie that he was believed to be wearing when he was reported missing.
