Missing girl, 12, feared to have run off with older man, found 50 miles away
A MISSING 12-year-old girl, who was feared to have run off with an older man, has been found 50 miles away from her home.
Jasmine Coleman, 12, was found in Croydon today after escaping her home in Lancing, West Sussex, in the early hours of the morning.
She had not been seen since 11.30pm last night when she was seen in her room, possibly talking to someone on Facetime.
When her room was checked at 2am this morning she was not there.
Police thought Jasmine may have gone off in a car with an older man travelling towards London, or may have travelled somewhere by train.
They have not confirmed how the slim, blonde, 5ft 8ins girl ended up in Croydon.
Sussex Police teamed up with the British Transport Police as well as forces in Surrey and London in an urgent effort to trace Jasmine this morning.
Sussex Police thanked the public in helping them trace the girl, who they said was safe and well.
