A father is pleading for sightings of his 13-year-old son after he walked out of an Auckland school on Friday morning and hasn’t been seen since.
On his Facebook page overnight Lucky Palamo wrote
“3.28am update fams, still no sign of Frazer all our families friends are allover town / Newmarket and Grey Lynn area right now but still no sign.
“Thank you fams for coming out and helping I’m gonna be out here til I find him but I’ll keep everyone posted...as a dad just mixed emotions I’m angry but then want to make sure he’s ok”
Lucky Palamo told the Herald on Friday his son, Frazer, was seen on CCTV footage leaving St Paul’s College in Ponsonby at 8.23am on Friday after telling his friends he was going to the shops.
“[He] didn’t end up coming back and his friends that he hangs out with noticed he wasn’t in class. It was reported to me at lunchtime so I’ve been looking for him ever since,” Palamo said.
Frazer, 13, has been missing since 8am on Friday after he walked out of Ponsonby school St Paul's College.
He said his son doesn’t know the neighbouring Grey Lynn area well and has never caught a bus or train in his life.
“We’ve looked at Grey Lynn Park and all the alternatives but he’s a homebody ... this is all new to us,” Palamo said.
Auckland league club Marist Saints also issued a plea on social media, saying Frazer’s family “haven’t heard from him and they’re very worried”.
“His family said this is out of character for Frazer. Please ask your kids if they’ve seen him around Saints. We pray you come home to your family safely,” the post read.
Police confirmed a missing persons report had been filed, but could not comment further.
