Missing 16-year-old boy from Budleigh Salterton - Police 'increasingly concerned'

Police are growing increasingly concerned for the safety of a 16-year-old Vietnamese man who is missing from his home in Budleigh Salterton, near Exmouth.

Nam Vu Van was last seen walking along Station Road in the town at around 2.30pm on Wednesday, April 29. He has not been seen since.

Police have concerns for the teenager due to his age and because he was new to the area.

Nam is described as Asian, of slim build, 5'9" in height with short black straight hair. He was last seen wearing a light coloured padded jacket, light tracksuit bottoms and black trainers.

Anyone who may have been in the area of Station Road or the High Street in Budleigh Salterton between 2pm and 3pm on the day he was reported missing, or anyone who has seen Nam since he was reported missing, is asked to get in touch with the police.

In addition, police would like to hear from motorists who may have dashcam footage of the area the day he went missing.

Anyone with any information that could assist officers' search for Nam is asked to contact police on 101 or by emailing [email protected], quoting log number 664 of the 29/04/2020.
