Children who went missing after Thorpe Park trip found safe and well
Three kids who disappeared while visiting a Surrey amusement park have been located unharmed in London.
Three children, Khandi (14), Amelia (9), and Malik (7), have been reported as missing after visiting Thorpe Park. They were acquainted with each other, and the two youngest children are related. The trio had planned a fun day out at the park and had made the journey from Milton Keynes to Surrey. They were last seen around 7pm.
The last time they were spotted was at 3:17 pm strolling from the park in the direction of Chertsey's downtown.
Det Supt Trevor Struthers from North Surrey expressed that they understand the worries that arose from this occurrence, particularly since the children were absent for an entire night and were very young.
Our team has worked non-stop to find these three individuals and we are all grateful that they have been located unharmed.
We've been grateful for the colossal amount of information and backing that came from both the general public and the media. We want to express our gratitude to everyone who gave us the information and supported our plea.
The Surrey police had communicated with the proprietor of a floral boutique located in Chertsey. The shopkeeper reported that a group of youngsters had entered her establishment around 3:50 PM, seeking guidance on how to get to the nearby train station.
On Facebook, Sam Williams, who runs House of Flowers, shared a photo from a security camera. The picture seems to depict two females: one who looks like a teen and another who appears younger. However, it hasn't been verified that these are the same girls who went missing.
In the wake of discovering that the kids had been found, Williams promptly expressed his thoughts. He stated that the weight had been lifted from everyone's shoulders, and they could finally function properly again after the thought of being the last people to speak to them was so overwhelming. It was a massive relief for all involved.
She expressed her belief that the children in the video are identical, but the police have yet to verify it. She contacted Surrey police in the morning to report that an elder girl requested for Abbotts Way in Chertsey and then subsequently for the train station. All three of them were captured in the footage and were seen together without any sign of adults around them.
According to Williams, he thinks it was the same group of children who came to ask for directions because not many children come to that area for that reason. He believes the police might have received other reports and were following up on those, which made him more optimistic this morning.
