Dillon was last spotted at the central London station roughly 200 miles from his home nearly a week ago, and his family have now launched an appeal in hopes he will be found, reports the Mirror.Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, Donna said the family has struggled to trace the teenager since he is believed to have arrived in London, with no sign of activity on social media.

Donna said: "This is why we're doing a lot of social media posts ourselves now. "There's not much the police can do as he's an 18-year-old boy.
