A 16-YEAR-OLD who had been missing since yesterday has been found.
Molly Baker was reported missing from the Oakridge Park area of the town yesterday, and police put out an appeal to the public as concern for her welfare grew.
A police spokesman said: "She is described as white, 4ft 9ins tall of slim build with shoulder length mousey coloured hair, which she wears in a pony-tail.
"She has brown eyes and is thought to be wearing a dark green hooded top with the words NIKE on the back.
"She’s also wearing black jeans and training shoes.
"Molly regularly uses social media.
"While she may still be in the Yeovil area, she also has links with Knowle West, Hartcliffe, Knowle in Bristol and the South Gloucestershire area.
"We would like Molly or anyone who may have been in contact with her to contact us to confirm she is okay."
She was found shortly before 5pm.
A spokesman added: "We're really happy to report that missing Molly Baker, 16, has been found safe and well.
"Thanks to everyone who shared our earlier appeal."
