The worried parents of a missing teenager have appealed for him to come home, saying: 'Just make contact with us, let us know you're okay'.

St Helena School pupil Stuart Burton, 14, has been missing from his home in Braiswick, Colchester, since Friday.

Before he went missing, he had an argument with his parents about skipping school. But his father, Lee, said they just want to know he is safe and well.

Anyone who knows where Stuart is should call his parents on 01206 852502, or Colchester police on 01206 762212.
