Police and the coastguard were out on a wet and windy night to search for a missing boy.
Rain hammered down as the coastguard helicopter scoured the coast between Brighton Marina and Newhaven looking for the 16-year-old who is missing from Peacehaven.
Police were at the scene and the Newhaven lifeboat also assisted.
Sussex Police issued a statement about the boy, who remains missing at the time of writing. They have not revealed his full name.
A spokesman for the force said: "We’re concerned for 16-year-old Blake, who is vulnerable and missing from Peacehaven.
"He is white, about 5ft 6in, with brown hair, and was last seen wearing a baby blue coloured tracksuit with white Nike Air Force 1 trainers.
"Blake is believed to be on foot, and also has links to Brighton, Saltdean, Southease and Rodmell.
"Please share and call 999 if you see him, quoting serial 995 of 28/05."
