Sydney, Australia – Police authorities in Sydney are expressing growing concerns for the well-being of a young mother and her infant, both of whom have gone missing from the city’s north-west. The incident has prompted a widespread appeal for public assistance.
Nineteen-year-old Emily Roberts and her six-month-old baby boy were last seen in Richmond around noon on October 15, 2023. Emily’s disappearance has prompted a series of investigations and an urgent plea for help from the local law enforcement agencies.
Authorities initiated their inquiries immediately upon learning of Emily’s disappearance, as she couldn’t be located or reached through any means. Information suggests she may have been in Liverpool, western Sydney, around 6 pm on the same day, though this remains unconfirmed.
Given Emily’s status as a person living with a disability, the police and her family are particularly concerned about the safety and well-being of her baby son.
Emily Roberts is described as having a Caucasian appearance, standing approximately 180cm tall, with a solid build and shoulder-length brown hair. At the time of her disappearance, she was wearing black boots, blue jeans, and an unspecified top. Her baby son was dressed in blue overalls.
Police are urging anyone with information related to their whereabouts to contact the Hawkesbury Police Area Command or Crime Stoppers at 1800 333 000. It is believed that Emily may have ties to the North Richmond, North Shore, Liverpool, and Central Coast areas.
The police are actively working to locate Emily Roberts and her baby and are appreciative of any information or assistance that can help ensure their safe return.
