Six Arrested After Girls Who Disappeared Are Found in Cornwall
Police said the six suspects are known to the girls, and officers are continuing house-to-house inquiries after the pair were found safe.
Warwickshire Police confirmed on Thursday that six people were arrested on suspicion of abducting Angelica and Verity, who were found safe in Cornwall after going missing from Rugby on Saturday.
In the early hours of Wednesday, officers arrested three suspects from Tintagel, Cornwall—two men, aged 62 and 25, and a woman, 56—along with a 42-year-old man from Falmouth.
Later that morning, police arrested two additional women, aged 75 and 47, from Rugby; all six individuals have since been released on police bail.
Detective Chief Superintendent Jon Belcher confirmed those in custody were known to the girls and stated there is no wider threat to the community following the investigation.
Over the coming days, officers will conduct house-to-house inquiries and speak with residents in areas of interest, encouraging anyone with concerns to approach police directly.
