POLICE have appealed to people across the Avon and Somerset force area to look out for a 15-year-old boy who has been missing from home for a week.

Merseyside Police say Liam Derbyshire has links to this area.

He was last seen in the Kirkby town centre area last Thursday (July 15).

He is white, 5ft 10in tall, slim with short dark brown hair.

He was wearing a grey tracksuit with a man bad around his neck, and black trainers when he went missing.

As well as Avon and Somerset, Liam also has links to Runcorn in Cheshire.
