Two teenagers who failed to return home after visiting a shopping centre have been found safe and well, Northumbria Police have confirmed.
Paige, 16, and Tyler, 13, were reported missing after visiting The Galleries in Washington on Sunday afternoon.
Officers asked for anyone who may know where they are to contact them as officers and family were growing increasingly concerned for their welfare. The pair were believed to be in Sunderland and have links to the Washington area – and could be using public transport.
On Monday evening Northumbria Police confirmed that both teens have now been found.
At the time of writing, police were also actively investigating TWO other missing persons with public appeals issued - here are the details:
- Concern grows for missing Sunderland schoolgirl Emily Rhodes, last seen on Easter Sunday
- Police searching for missing Washington woman Holly Loraine with family 'increasingly concerned'
