The hunt for Lewis, a 16-year-old boy from Thamesmead who vanished nearly four months ago, persists as authorities urge the public for any information that could lead to his whereabouts.
Lewis was last seen on January 14, 2024, and despite extensive efforts by law enforcement, community members, and his family, there have been no signs of his location.
With connections to various areas including Southwark, Cambridge, and Essex, Lewis’s disappearance has prompted widespread concern among authorities and residents alike.
The Bexley branch of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) has taken to social media platforms, such as Twitter, to issue appeals for assistance in locating Lewis. They have stressed the importance of reporting any sightings or relevant information to the police by dialling 101 and providing the reference number 24MIS001482.
In a recent tweet, Bexley MPS reiterated the urgency of the situation, stating, “Lewis remains missing, he has connections to Southwark, Cambridge, and Essex. Please call 101 if he is sighted.”
This plea follows an earlier tweet by the same authority, where they provided details about Lewis’s disappearance and emphasized his connections to east London and Cambridge. The tweet urged anyone who may have seen Lewis to contact the police immediately and quote the reference number.
As the search for Lewis enters its fourth month, the community’s cooperation and vigilance are crucial in aiding the efforts to locate him and ensure his safety. Authorities remain committed to exhaustively pursuing all leads and information in hopes of bringing Lewis back to his family and loved ones.
