Police fear for missing girl, 14

Police are concerned about a 14-year-old Christchurch girl who went to her local shops on Sunday and did not return home.

Ashley Sehnert, who lives in surburban Papanui, has not contacted her family, friends or been to school since then.

This was completely out of character for her, police said.

When last seen Ashley was wearing blue jeans, a black T-shirt with the words "I love dirty, dirty house music" and a pink, hooded sweat shirt. She always wears glasses.

Anyone with information about where Ashley might be is asked to contact Christchurch police.
