Scarlet Duddy was last seen in Derry, but police suspect that she may have traveled with a relative into the Republic of Ireland.

Authorities in Northern Ireland have appealed to the public for help in locating four year-old Scarlet Duddy, who was reported missing yesterday.

The child was last seen leaving a play centre in Derry yesterday, though it is suspected that she may have traveled to the Republic with a relative.

In a statement, the PSNI said: “Scarlet was last seen shortly before midday today leaving a children’s play centre on the Springtown Road area of the city.

“We are keen to know that Scarlet is safe and well. We believe she may be in the company of a relative and may possibly be in the Republic of Ireland.

“I would appeal to that person to get in touch with police as soon as possible on 101, quoting the reference number 932 of 28/06/21.”

The child is described as having hazel eyes and light brown hair, which was tied up with a pink bow. She is missing her front two teeth. She was wearing peach leggings, a peach t-shirt with the words ‘Daddy’s little superstar’ on the front and a dark blue jumper with a silver sequined heart.
