A teenager who went missing after he was last seen in Northumberland has been found.

Officers were appealing for the public’s help to locate missing Carl Mardghum, who was last seen in the North East. The 17-year-old from Lancashire was last seen in the Queens Gardens area of Blyth at around 8.30pm on Monday.

On Wednesday afternoon, Northumbria Police confirmed that Carl had fortunately been located.

Northumbria Police’s Missing Persons Team was set up four months ago – with the team working closely with response officers to help trace and safeguard 1,435 people.
