Police are hunting for a teenager who disappeared after setting off in her car on Thursday just before the Met Office’s red weather warning came into force.

Lucy Duncan,  who is described as being 5ft 4in to 5ft 5in tall, with light brown hair tied in a ponytail, left her home in Horton, Swansea at around 11.55am in her black 14-plate Volkswagen Take Up.

South Wales Police say the 19-year-old, who was wearing a black t-shirt, black trousers and a bright red jacket, withdrew money from HSBC in Swansea about an hour later and they believe she then travelled on the A465 through Hirwaun and Brynmawr.
