Vic Police search for missing 12yo girl

Police are appealing for help to find a 12-year-old girl missing from her home in northwest Melbourne for three days.

Samantha Dellar was last seen leaving her home in St Albans on Monday afternoon wearing a t-shirt and blue shorts.

She has distinctive dyed burgundy hair, a piercing in her lip and is around 1.6 metres tall.

Her family are worried due to her young age and because she had no money or mobile phone with her.
