A 12-year-old boy who went missing after school today has been safely located, police have said.
Earlier, detectives said they were becoming “increasingly concerned” about the disappearance of David Morris-Puttock.
David failed to turn up when his sister came to pick him up from Great Marlow School at 4pm and there have been no sighting of him since 5.30pm.
Police urged anyone who may have seen him, or may have information, to come forward as soon as possible and they have now thanked the public for their help.
There were a couple of sightings of David at around 4.50pm near his school Great Marlow School in Bobmore Lane and also at about 5.30pm at Woodland Way near Oak Tree Road.

At the time, Insp Nick Hind, leading the investigation said: “We are increasingly concerned about his disappearance as this is out of character for him. He does not have a phone with him and limited access to money.
Thank you to all who responded to help find missing 12 yo David from Marlow. We're pleased to say that he has now been safely located

“We would say that he is not in any trouble but we just want to ensure he is safe. His family are very worried and want him to come home."
