Police are searching different areas of east Hamilton as they look for two missing boys.
Roman and Stephen Mackhan-Lively, 12 and 13 years old, respectively, were last seen on July 14, police said.
The boys are believed to be in the areas around Oriole Crescent in McQuesten East, East 38th Street on the Hamilton Mountain or Jutland Crescent near Albion Falls, police said.
Police said they believe the two are together and there are no "immediate safety concerns" but want to confirm their well-being. Patrol units and investigators from police's missing persons unit are searching those neighbourhoods, they said.
Police told CBC Hamilton after requesting further information about their safety that "investigators do not believe that there are immediate safety concerns for either boy. If that changes, then we will amend our messaging."
Roman and Stephen are both described as Black, of light complexion, five feet two inches tall and around 105 and 114 pounds, respectively.

Luc Bourgeois is pictured in an undated photo. (Source: Facebook/Chloé Allain) The family of missing New Brunswick kayaker Luc Bourgeois says they have recovered his body one week after his disappearance. Bourgeois left the Pointe-du-Chene Wharf in his kayak last Thursday morning but hadn't been seen since around 1 p.m. His cousin told CTV Atlantic his kayak and life jacket were found near Caissie-Cape sometime later that day. Multiple agencies, including the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Halifax, the RCMP, the Canadian Coast Guard, and the Tri-County Ground Search and Rescue, were involved in the search. The RCMP ended its search on Sunday. Dozens of civilian volunteers, including family and friends, also took part in their own searches on land, on sea and by air. 'Our hearts are shattered' Bourgeois's mother announced his death in a post on Facebook Thursday night. 'We are extremely saddened, but beyond relieved he has been found. Our hearts are shattered in millions of pieces,' Connie Bourgeois said. 'Luc was recovered at sea by his family, who had been diligently searching for him since the time of his disappearance. We brought him home.' Connie Bourgeois also thanked the community for their 'outpouring of love, support, and kindness.' Luc Bourgeois was 34 years old and leaves behind a seven-year-old son.
