Police appeal after 13-year-old girl reported missing

Lillia was reported missing to Greater Manchester Police on Friday, September 11, and officers say they have been carrying out "extensive enquiries" to find her.

She is described as a slim white girl, around 5ft 5ins tall, with light brown hair and glasses.

She was last seen wearing a black zip-up hooded top, light blue baggy jeans and carrying a black Nike backpack.

Police believe Lillia boarded the 247 bus at the Trafford Centre at around 1.50pm on Saturday afternoon.

It is currently unclear how long she remained on the bus or where she got off.

GMP is now appealing to anyone who travelled on the 247 at the time and remembers seeing Lillia to come forward.

Officers are also asking anyone with CCTV or Ring doorbell footage which could be relevant to the investigation to contact police.

Anyone who has had contact or conversations with Lillia since she was reported missing is also urged to get in touch.

GMP said: “Lillia – if you see this appeal – please know that your family love you, miss you, and just want to know that you are safe.

“You are not in any trouble. They simply want you to come home.”

A Major Incident Public Portal has been set up where members of the public can submit information to police.
