Warning to parents as TikTok trend sees kids deliberately go missing for 48 hours

PARENTS are being alerted by social media users to a TikTok trend where kids go missing on purpose for 48 hours.

A huge search was launched at the weekend after two girls, aged 14 and 15, vanished.

Dozens of locals joined the hunt for the pals in pouring rain in Stockton, Teesside.

They were found safe on Monday but there were rumours circulating.

Why the girls went missing has not been revealed and there is no evidence of a TikTok link.

But one social media user warned: “It may not be the reason in some cases but it’s happening a lot worldwide.”

Another said: “This is so idiotic and dangerous, TikTok needs banning.”

Cleveland Police said: “We are aware of a rumour regarding a TikTok trend but it is not known to have taken place in our area.

“We would always encourage parents to be aware of what could be happening on social media."
