Reporting a missing person

 Good morning, madam. Can I help you?

 Good morning, officer. I’d like to report that my son has disappeared.
 Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. When and how did he disappear?
 He left home the day before yesterday. He said he was going to his friends in
Budapest, but he didn’t arrive there.
 I see. Could you tell me a few things about your son’s appearance? First of all, how
old is he?
 He’s 17, but he looks older than his age.
 How tall is he?
 About 180 centimetres. He’s quite well-built and strong, he’s about 75 kilograms.
 What is his hair like?
 He’s got collar-length fair hair.
 Is it straight or curly?
 It’s straight.
 What about his eyes?
 They’re grey, and he’s got bushy eyebrows.
 Does he wear glasses?
 No, he doesn’t.
 What shape is his face?
 Well, it’s oval. Oh, and there’s a small scar on his chin.
 Has he got any other distinguishing marks? For example a birthmark or freckles, or
maybe a tattoo?
 Well, his face is a bit freckled, and he’s got a pale complexion.
 Can you tell me what he was wearing when he left home?
 Let me think. He was wearing dark blue jeans, an orange and blue striped T-shirt and a
black leather jacket.
 And the shoes?
 Oh, yes. He was wearing his new pair of trainers. It was grey, with a white Puma-sign
at the heels.
 Anything else that you can tell us about him?
 Yes, here’s a photo of him, but it was taken more than a year ago.
 No problem, it will help us a lot. Finally, I will write down some of your personal data
and then we’ll take the necessary steps. And we will let you know as soon as we find
something.
