A TEENAGER who went missing two weeks ago has been found after a public appeal for information.

Police became concerned for the welfare of Nathan Bolton, 14, when he went missing after leaving home to visit friends in Burnley on April 2.

The Nelson schoolboy, who has never been away from home this long before, was due to return at 9pm.

But he was not seen for 15 days - and only made contact with his family once when he refused to return home- prompting the police concerns.

Early today a Lancashire Police spokesman confirmed that Nathan had been found safe and well.
