Sergeant Frank Williams of Renfrew Police Office said: “Jessica has not been missing before and it is completely out of character for her not to keep in close contact with her family and friends.
“Searches and enquiries are continuing to trace Jessica in a number of areas. She regularly visits Braehead Shopping Centre and the Erskine and Skelmorlie areas.
“Anyone who has seen Jessica, or who has any information on her whereabouts should contact Renfrew Police Office through 101 quoting reference number 3156 of 11th March 2019.”
