Search for missing 12-year-old girl last seen boarding a train towards Glasgow enters its fourth day as police renew appeal to the public

  • Jamie-Lee Harvey from Ayr, Scotland was last seen boarding a train on Tuesday
  • Train was heading towards Glasgow but police say she could have got off earlier 

Fears continue to grow for a 12-year-old girl, who has now been missing for four days from her home in Ayr, on the southwest coast of Scotland.

Jamie-Lee Harvey was last seen on Tuesday afternoon, boarding a train from the town’s station which was heading in the direction of Glasgow.

Police have renewed their appeal for the public’s help in tracing the schoolgirl, who they say may have got off the train earlier as she is known to frequent the Irvine, Kilwinning and Saltcoats areas.

Searches are ongoing in Ayrshire and officers in Glasgow and at the British Transport Police have also been informed in case she made her way to the busy city, where she often visits the Union Street area.

She was wearing black clothing including a padded jacket, jumper, leggings and trainers when she was last seen at around 3.30pm on March 14 at Ayr train station.
