When young people disappear

The cases of missing young people have been discussed again and again in recent years. Especially in a city like Dresden, there are always reports of young people disappearing for various reasons. According to current studies on juvenile crime, it can be seen that many young people can act as both perpetrators and victims of crime during their development. It is important to highlight the social circumstances that often lead to such behavior, as bpb.de illuminates.

A decline in juvenile crime has been noted in recent years, but the young people affected often face major challenges in their everyday lives. While the majority of young people are dealing with adulthood, many are still affected by a variety of social issues that increase the risk of becoming involved in criminal activity. Young people with a migrant background also find that they often become victims of crime.

Call for help

The police and relatives are urgently asking for the public's help. Every clue could be crucial to finding Lara K. and bringing her to safety. The situation is tense and everyone should know: something is going on. If you have any information about their whereabouts, please do not hesitate to contact the authorities. The hope that the girl will return soon is the priority, and in such a close-knit community like Dresden, you often have a good knack for even the little things that could have a big impact.
