For the second time in two weeks, two 15-year-old girls have been reported missing.
Police on Monday issued a new appeal to the public to help find Shania Beckford and Jahsmine Ebanks, who were last seen at their West Bay residence just before 10:30pm on Friday.
They were among three girls who were located by police last week after being reported missing on 7 March.
Jahsmine and the other girl were found by police on Seven Mile Beach on 13 March, but Shania fled from officers at the time. She was later located by police on Wednesday, 15 March, following a land and sea search involving the RCIPS helicopter and the Coast Guard.
In a statement on Monday, 20 March, police said, “The RCIPS is informing the public that anyone who harbours or conceals a young person, is guilty of an offense and is liable, on conviction, to being fined $2000 and to imprisonment for three months.”
Officers are encouraging the two girls to return to their West Bay address or attend the nearest police station immediately.
Jahsmine was last seen wearing dark-coloured pyjama pants and a sweater, and is described as 5 feet, 4 inches tall, of dark complexion, and medium build.
Shania was last seen wearing a pink top and pyjama bottoms. She is described as being about 4 feet, 9 inches tall, of medium build and of brown complexion, with curly brown hair.
Anyone with information on their whereabouts is encouraged to call the West Bay Police Station at 949-3999 or the M.A.S.H Unit at 649-6000.
