Telford parkA Shropshire schoolgirl who went missing from Telford Ice Rink has been found safe and well, police said today.

Kayleigh Pugh, from Hadley, was found in Telford Town Centre today.

The 15 year-old has been missing since Monday, when she was dropped off at the ice rink by a relative shortly after noon.

When her ice skating lesson was cancelled due to poor weather she told a friend she was going into the town centre, but disappeared.

Concern had since been growing for Kayleigh, who has learning difficulties.

The youngster was spotted by a member of the public, who then reported the sighting to police at just after 1pm.

Chris Ammonds, police spokesman today said police then carried out checks to make sure the girl was safe and well.
