Police looking for a mother of two young children, who has not been seen since 14 November, are searching areas near Hastings.

Alexandra Morgan, 34, was last seen at a Shell petrol station in Cranbrook, Kent.

On Wednesday Kent Police said they were searching areas close to Westfield and Rock Lane, with support from Sussex Police.

Officers are also trying to trace her distinctive Mini Cooper.

Ch Insp Lizzie Jones of Kent Police said: "As each hour passes we become increasingly concerned.

"It's completely out of character that she shouldn't make contact with her children."

Her disappearance is now being investigated by the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate.

Ms Morgan, from Sissinghurst, Kent, put petrol in her car, which is white with a black roof, at 07:20 GMT on 14 November.

Petrol station manager Rose McAuley said she was dressed smartly and talked about making a drive to Yorkshire, even though her car was not driving properly.

"It was a bit funny that she was driving all the way to Yorkshire when your car breaks down after three revs.

"It had £10 worth of fuel in, so when you put two and two together, it doesn't match up now."
