FEARS are mounting over the whereabouts of two young boys missing since 9.30am on Sunday.

Bryan Sewell, 12, and Dean Sheavils, 14, were last seen playing in woods near their home in Brook Close, Newton Aycliffe, County Durham.

"Bryan and Dean are considered vulnerable because of their age and as they have been away from home for a couple of nights we have concerns for their well-being. So far our enquiries have drawn a blank."

PC Matthew Edwards

Bryan and Dean are believed to have family in the Gateshead and Blyth areas, respectively.

Bryan is described as being of stocky build with brown eyes, dark brown and straight short hair, with a faint scar above his right eye.

When last seen he was wearing black Reebok trainers, dark tracksuit bottoms and a grey tracksuit top, possibly hooded.
