Another youth goes missing

Mar 19, 2009 News

The mother of an 11-year-old boy is desperately seeking the public’s help in locating her youngest son who has gone missing since last Friday from his Diamond, East Bank Demerara home.
The woman, Sharon Campbell, told Kaieteur News yesterday that she was in Trinidad on vacation at the time, and immediately flew back to Guyana after learning that her son, Andre Pratt, called Ron, has gone missing.
According to the woman, her eldest daughter had sent the youth, who attends the Diamond Primary School, to purchase rat poison in Georgetown. Since then he has not returned home.
However, one of her friends reported that she saw the young man at the ‘fish shop’ during the Friday evening that he went missing. This friend said that she was not aware that the teen had run away from home.
The friend explained that when she called out to the youth, he ran away.
Meanwhile, Sharon Campbell explained that this is not the first time that her son has ran away from home. During the course of the same week, the youth left home for three days, after he was caught stealing $13,000 and a cell phone from his sister.
He was eventually found in the vicinity of Bourda Market by his siblings. Sharon said that she is at a loss as to why her son would want to run away from home. She noted that since she came back in the country, she has been frantically searching for him, especially at nights, but thus far has not been able to locate him.
A missing person report has since been made at the Diamond Police Station.
Anyone with information on the missing boy is asked to make contact with his mother on telephone numbers 216 – 1503 or 696 – 5457.
