A 12-YEAR-OLD boy from Nuneaton who was reported as ‘missing’ earlier this week has been found.

Back on Thursday afternoon (23 June), Warwickshire Police officers issued an appeal after Regan Welch was believed to be missing from his hometown of Nuneaton as he had not been heard or seen from.

Officers stated in the appeal that he has connections to both Nuneaton and the Staffordshire area.

Thankfully, just one day later (Friday, 24 June), the force had revealed that he had been located ‘safe and well’.

They further thanked members of the public who helped to share the appeal and raise awareness.

A Warwickshire Police spokesperson said: “Thank you to everyone who shared an earlier appeal to locate Regan Welch. We’re pleased to confirm he’s been found safe and well this morning (Friday).”
