He is Eastern European and described as being around 5ft , of large build, with short, bushy brown hair and brown eyes. Detective Inspector Lee Wilson, who is overseeing the investigation into Aaron’s disappearance, said: “Our enquiries continue in earnest to locate this missing 13-year-old boy, as it is now over three weeks since we last had any confirmed sightings of him. “This is obviously incredibly concerning given his young age, and it’s imperative that we find him as soon as possible to ensure he is safe and well. “We understand that Aaron may have travelled to London, or possibly Manchester, as he has connections in both of those regions. “One arrest has been made so far as part of this investigation and I would advise anyone who may be hiding Aaron or keeping him from police officers that they are potentially committing criminal offences. “I’d urge the public to look at this latest image of Aaron, which was taken earlier this year and is one of the most recent photos we have.
