Fears after 16-year-old girl vanishes without a trace in Queensland town
An urgent search has been launched for a 16-year-old girl who vanished from a quiet, residential street overnight.
The teenager was last seen walking from an address on Burleigh Court in Blacks Beach near Mackay, Queensland, about 8.30pm on Wednesday.
Family are concerned for her welfare given her age and a medical condition which requires medication.
The girl has been described as approximately 155cm tall.
She has black hair with 'red tips', and a slim build.
The teen was last seen wearing a black hoodie, black shorts, black shoes with white socks, fishnet stockings, and a moon boot on her left foot.
'Investigators are appealing to the girl, or anyone with information about her whereabouts to contact police,' Queensland Police said in a statement.
