Missing girl, 15, found in KZN

Missing 15-year-old found more than 700km from home.

The search for the 15-year-old missing girl from Krugersdorp West came to an end after she had been found in KwaZulu-Natal yesterday.

The teenager left her home on 27 September, the day she turned 15.

Tracey Kuhn last was seen at a tuck shop in Burgershoop on Monday night where she and a male friend had bought energy drinks. She was wearing a black-and-white striped tank top and ripped blue denim pants

Sector 4 and 5 Community Policing Forum members joined forces with the police and patrolled the area until late in search of the two teens.

A tip-off by a family member pointed police towards KwaZulu-Natal and the two eventually were located in Port Shepstone yesterday.

Tracey’s parents travelled to the town on the KZN South Coast where they were reunited late last night to bring her home.

“I am relieved that my daughter was found safe and sound. I would like to thank Rose Menezes from CPF 4, Colonel Van Staden, the counsellor at the school and all the CPF 5 patrollers who worked around the clock to help locate my daughter,” said Louise Kuhn.
