A 14-year-old boy has gone missing from Grove Park, causing concern for his safety.

Florian Schmidt was last seen at 3pm on Friday, December 1, at his school in Orpington.

His disappearance is “completely out of character”, and his family is becoming more and more worried.

He is described as black, about 5ft 9, slim and with short dark hair, and when he went missing he was wearing his school uniform – a dark blazer, light blue and black tie, white shirt and grey trousers – and is thought to be carrying a black Nike bag.

It is believed he was travelling on the London bus network.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101, or Missing People on 116000.
