A 16-year-old Lowestoft girl, who went missing on Monday, has turned up safe and well.

Samantha Paterson was last seen by her family when she left her home, in the Blyford Road area, for Lowestoft College and police admitted they were growing increasingly concerned for her safety.

However, her family were elated tonight after receiving a call from police to say Samantha had turned up in Hertfordshire.

Inquiries into her disappearance are continuing.
