Family appeal: Danny has been missing since Wednesday 4 February
Concern is growing for a teenage boy who has been missing from his home for almost two weeks.
Daniel Sharples disappeared from his Smallbridge home on Wednesday 4 February, and his family have since appealed for his safe return through Rochdale Online.
A group has also been set up on the social networking site Facebook, where a number of well-wishers have urged for his safe return home.
Daniel, 15, is thought to have been wearing a tracksuit jacket with a blue and white collar and red and white striped sleeves, with black casual bottoms, plain black Reebok trainers and a black and white hat.
He has also been described as having blue eyes, dark blonde hair and about 5ft 7ins in height.
A concerned family member who has not been named said: “This is an appeal to anyone that has seen Daniel or might know his whereabouts. He has been missing from Smallbridge area in Rochdale since Wednesday the 4th February.
“All of his family and friends are very worried about him”.
A spokesperson from Greater Manchester Police declined to comment for legal reasons.
