A schoolboy from Oldham who went missing earlier this week has been found, police have confirmed.

On Thursday (April 16), Greater Manchester Police (GMP) issued an appeal to help find a 10-year-old boy called Aaron.

He had last been seen in Werneth shortly before 4pm on Wednesday (April 15).

Police had said they were becoming increasingly worried about Aaron and were looking to make sure he was found safe and well.

Now, police have confirmed Aaron has been found and that the search has ended.

A spokesperson for GMP said Aaron was found on Thursday and the appeal was taken down from social media.
