Western Australia police seek public help to locate missing 10-year-old Lyndel Ningella

Police in Western Australia are searching for 10-year-old Lyndel Ningella, who vanished from Butler on August 15 and may have traveled to nearby suburbs.

Western Australian police are conducting a search for Lyndel Ningella, a ten-year-old who disappeared from Butler, a northern suburb of Perth, on the evening of August 15. She was reportedly wearing a black jumper and black shorts at the time. Investigators think she may have travelled to the suburbs of Kwinana, Leda, Parmelia or Wellard, with particular focus on the Wellard area within the Mandurah police district, where she might have been over the weekend.

Assistant Superintendent Darren Hart warned that her age makes the situation especially serious and suggested she could be staying with relatives or friends. Lyndel is described as about 160 cm tall, medium-built, with brown eyes and long brown hair that has blonde ends. Police are urging anyone who saw her or has any leads to get in touch with authorities.
