Body found in search for missing Keighley teenager

Police looking for a 14 year old from Keighley say they have found a body and her family have been informed.

Earlier today, officers put out an urgent appeal to help trace Kekshan Rashid, who hadn't been seen since Wednesday afternoon (16th September).

They said she had failed to return home from Holy Family School in Keighley and stated that the behaviour was 'completely out of character' for the 14 year old.

This afternoon in a statement, the force said: "Police searching for a missing girl have found a body in the Keighley area. There are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances to the incident. The family of Kekshan Rashid, 14, have been informed."

The teenager had last been seen at around 1.50pm at the school on Spring Gardens Lane.
