Myself and PC Wayne Waldron were patrolling the three counties show this morning when they were approached by the family of a five year old girl who had gone missing. The parents had the foresight to take a photo of their daughter prior to entering the showground today, something that we would highly recommend parents do when ever going out with their young children. I stayed with one of the parents to take details, whilst PC Waldron liaised with the Three Counties staff and security. Further police resources were drafted into the showground and we were lucky enough to have members of West Mercia Search and Rescue manning a stand who jumped into action.
The Three Counties have a dedicated missing child team who also assisted.
The girl was found safe and well, and was reunited with her parents.
A couple of hours later PC Waldron and I were approached by a dad of another missing five year old. The little boy was found swiftly very close to where he had wondered off. He was happy as Larry looking at the tractors.
