Mr Justice Rooney has asked the public for assistance in determining why the 14-year-old left his home on Fitzroy Avenue in Belfast at 5.40pm on June 21, 2020 before cycling through the city centre. <\/p>\n

Anyone who knows why Noah left home, where he went, whether he met anyone and what happened his flip-flops and\/or his headphones has been urged to contact the Coroners Service for Northern Ireland. <\/p>\n

The coroner is also hoping to hear from anyone with knowledge of Noah being out in the early hours of the morning on any other occasion. <\/p>\n

The teenager was captured on CCTV cycling from Northwood Drive at around 6.08pm which is the last known time Noah was seen alive.<\/p>\n

He had left his flat on the corner of Fitzroy Avenue and Dudley Street earlier on the same day of his disappearance at around 3:34am before returning at 4.08am during damp and drizzling weather. <\/p>\n

Footage captures Noah\u2019s departure and return to the property. <\/p>\n

“When Noah left home at approximately 3:34am, he was casually dressed in dark coloured knee length shorts and a light or white coloured T-shirt.<\/p>\n

“He was wearing flip-flops and carrying over-ear headphones in his right hand.<\/p>\n

“On leaving the address Noah appears to turn right, walking west in the direction of Queen\u2019s University.<\/p>\n

Street, coming from the direction of Ormeau Road and walking in the direction of<\/p>\n

Queen\u2019s University.<\/p>\n

“From there, he turned left onto Dudley Street and then right onto Fitzroy Avenue, turning immediately into his home address.<\/p>\n

\u201cNoah re-entered through the front door of 65 Fitzroy Avenue at approximately<\/p>\n

4.08am.<\/p>\n

“It is apparent from CCTV footage that he was barefoot on his return, and neither his flip-flops nor his headphones are visible on his person.\u201d<\/p>\n
