No charge for man arrested over teenager

A man who was arrested in connection with a missing fourteen-year-old Shropshire schoolgirl will not face any charges, police said today. A massive police hunt got under way after the teenager vanished.

Sarah Dunn, from Leintwardine, near Ludlow, went missing during a shopping trip at the end of September.

She was found safe and well on November 4 in Leicester.

Today a police spokesman said today: "A man arrested in Leicester in connection with the Sarah Dunn case will not be facing any charges.

"I'm told it was through his co-operation that we were able to locate Sarah and return her to the care of social services."

Sarah, who went to school in Ditton Priors, disappeared during a shopping trip to Bridgnorth on September 28 and was later spotted in Wellington.

Police released CCTV footage of the teenager who was spotted in the town centre on the day she went missing as part of their appeal for information.

At the time Sarah's mother, Christine Dunn, also made a public appeal during a press conference for her daughter to contact her.

Police later focused their investigation on the West Midlands saying that Sarah had taken an interest in Islam prior to going missing and had contacts in the Smethwick and Dudley areas.

And the head of Birmingham Central Mosque appealed to the Asian community for help as concern for her welfare increased.
