Police have issued an urgent appeal to find a missing 16-year-old boy from Brent, who was last seen on Church Road yesterday between 5pm and 6pm.
Malachi, 16, was last seen outside Saucy Flipper Fish Bar on Church Road on Monday. His bag was reported found on the 18 bus.
He has been described as five foot four inches tall, with a “solid” and “athletic” build. He has long black dreadlocks that tend to be tied back and dark brown eyes.
According to the missing appeal, Malachi is considered vulnerable due to his autism and risk of non-epileptic seizures. There are “serious concerns” for his wellbeing, as he was due to attend a medical appointment.
Anyone who has seen Malachi is urgently asked to call police on 101, quoting reference MP/2026/1045.
If you were in the Church Road area on Monday evening, or travelled on the 18 bus, and saw anything that could help, police want to hear from you. Even a small detail could help officers narrow down where Malachi went after he was last seen.
