Fears grow for missing Surry Hills student

Written by AAP | The Sydney Morning Herald

2010-01-07

Police hold concerns for the welfare of a young Chinese student who has gone missing from his inner-Sydney home.

You Yang Wang, also known as David Wang, apparently left his Surry Hills address on Wednesday.

Police say the 19-year-old has avoided contact with family members and friends, which is considered out of character.

Overnight searches of the Oatley area, south of Sydney, were unsuccessful. The searches included the Police helicopter, PolAir and the dog unit.

Mr Wang is described as being of Asian appearance, about 175cm tall, with a slim build, and dark hair and eyes.

He is 19 years old.

Anyone who knows of Mr Wang's whereabouts is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
