									Kate McCann, mother of Madeleine, 
									highlighting the first disappearance of 
									Nicola Grobler   | 
								
							
							
							A BIRMINGHAM teenager has gone missing for a second time – sparking 
							concerns from police that she may be “exploited”.
							
							 
							
							Nicola Grobler, 14, was last seen leaving an address in Harborne on 
							August 17, saying she was going to visit a friend in 
							Walsall.
							
							 
							
							The South African-born schoolgirl, whose mum lives in Northfield, 
							vanished barely a month after being found on the day 
							her image was used to help launch a new campaign to 
							locate runaways.
							
							 
							
							On that occasion, Kate McCann, the mum of missing Madeleine McCann, 
							posed in front of a picture of her at the city 
							Bullring complex.
							
							 
							
							 
							
							Acting Det Insp Dave Amos said: “We have some confirmed sightings 
							of her in central Birmingham and most recently 
							Stechford but her mother is desperately worried she 
							hasn’t made contact.
							
							 
							
							“If anyone knows where Nicola is, or believes they have seen her, 
							we’d urge them to contact us or the Missing People 
							charity.”
							
							 
							
							Nicola is white, around 5ft 7ins tall with long wavy brown hair, a 
							fair complexion and blue eyes.
							
							 
							
							Anyone with any information about her whereabouts should call 
							Birmingham South Police on 101 or Missing People on 
							116000 via phone or text.
