Police are looking for train-interested boy

Police in Southern Jutland are seeking a missing 12-year-old boy last seen near a school in Esbjerg.

The Southern and Sønderjylland Police are actively searching for a 12-year-old boy who was last spotted near a school in Esbjerg on Friday morning. This child is wearing an orange neck gaiter, a black jacket, gray pants, and black-and-white shoes, as detailed by the police department. Additionally, he is recognized by a sunflower strap he carries with him.

The police have noted that the boy has a strong interest in trains, which has led to previous instances where he embarked on train journeys across the country.

This background highlights the potential for the boy to travel across various locations, raising concerns for his safety and the urgency in locating him.

Authorities have appealed to the public for assistance, urging anyone with information that could help in the search for the boy to contact the police at the emergency number 114. Given the nature of the incident and the boy's interests in trains, it underscores the importance of community vigilance and support in ensuring his safe return to his family.
