Police search for missing Indian teen in LA

Los Angeles: Authorities are still looking for an Indian teenaged boy who went missing last week while on an educational tour to Los Angeles.

Even though the circumstances surrounding 15-year-old Lovedeep Singh's disappearance are unclear, authorities maintained there was no evidence of foul play.

Police are seeking the public's assistance in finding the boy who was on his first trip to the west American state.

"As each day passes, our concern heightens," Darnell Davenport, commanding officer of detectives in the Police Department's Southwest Division, was quoted as saying.

Police are concerned that Singh, believed to have been carrying a substantial amount of money in his pocket, could have fallen in the trap of an Internet conman.

"He doesn't really speak English. Where would he go? Who would he communicate with? Where would he stay every night? He is 15 years old," Davenport said.

Singh, along with his 10-year-old brother, had arrived as part of a group of about 30 people who had arrived from India for an educational tour that would include tourist spots in California.

Five Los Angeles Police Department detectives have questioned the members of Singh's group at the Indian Consulate in San Francisco.
