Detective Constable Craig Riley, of Wakefield District CID, said: "From our enquiries, we believe these boys have left West Yorkshire and that they have been travelling on trains.

"Given their ages, we need to locate them and ensure they are safe and well.

"I would ask anyone who has seen them or with any information about their movements or whereabouts to report it. Similarly, I would ask the boys themselves to make contact with us."

Anyone with information can use 101 Live Chat on the West Yorkshire Police website or can provide information by calling 101. If calling from outside West Yorkshire, you will need to ask to be directed to West Yorkshire Police.
