Police in Australia have appealed for help tracing the whereabouts of a missing pregnant Irish teenager.
18-year-old Katie Cash, who was 38 weeks pregnant at the time she was last seen, left a hospital in Randwick, New South Wales, on July 13.
The teenager, who police have said may also go by a different name, was seen walking out of the building on CCTV cameras two weeks ago.
Cops have “grave concerns” for her welfare.
She is described as a white female with a slim build, short dark hair and green eyes. She also has a scar on the right side of her forehead.
