Police say they are concerned about the welfare of a missing heavily-pregnant teenage girl.
Gloucestershire Police officers are trying to find Kacey-Rae, 17, from Cinderford in the Forest of Dean.
She is believed to be with another missing teenager, known as George, who is from the Wolverhampton area and is also 17.
The pair were seen together in Kings Square in Gloucester at about 17:30 GMT on Sunday and were later spotted on CCTV at Gloucester railway station at about 20:00 that day.
