Detectives with the Wilmington and Leland police departments are searching for two teens missing since early Thursday morning.
According to Wilmington Police Department Spokeswoman Lucy Crockett, Kelsey Harmon, 14, of Wilmington, and Aynton Clemmons, 16, of Leland, were last seen at 1 a.m. Thursday.
Crockett said Harmon and Clemmons have turned off their cell phones and cannot be reached. Their parents believe they have left the area.
Both teens have been entered in the National Crime Information Center database, Crockett said. The two teens are believed to be together.
Clemmons reportedly took his parents’ white 1991 Honda Accord station wagon without authorization sometime early Thursday morning. He has a learner’s permit, but does not have a valid driver’s license.
The Accord has a distinctive fish decal on the back, Crockett said. Its license plate number is AKR-9362.
Anyone with information about Clemmons or Harmon, or their whereabouts, is asked to call the Wilmington Police Department at (910) 343-3600 or their closest local law enforcement agency.
