The South African Police Service is urgently searching for a 14-year-old girl who has not been seen for several days. Allegra Styles was last spotted on 8 October 2026 at around 6pm in the Eastern Cape. She was wearing a beige top and blue jeans at the time.
A family member only reported her missing two days later, on 10 October 2026. According to Eastern Cape police spokesperson Captain Sandra Janse van Rensburg, investigators believe Allegra left home to attend a gathering in Kamma Park following a dispute with her boyfriend.
"The family member told police that Allegra had gone to Kamma Park to attend a party following an alleged altercation with her boyfriend. Allegra and her boyfriend have not been seen since," police said.
