A Wiltshire teenager who went missing last week has been found safe and well.

On Wednesday morning, the county force confirmed that she has now been found safe and well.

A Wiltshire Police spokesperson said: "Following extensive investigation, Ritika the 15-year-old juvenile from Marlborough who was previously reported missing, was located yesterday safe and well outside our force area.

"We would like to thank members of the public for their support with enquiries throughout the investigation.
