A 13-year-old boy from Somerset who had not been seen since Sunday evening has been found safe and well.
The last sighting of James Whalley from Holcombe, west of Frome, had been at 10pm.
Avon and Somerset Police used a helicopter to help look for him.
One of the locations searched was Holcombe Quarry.
The hunt continued through the night and the teenager was found on Tuesday morning.
A force spokesman said: "We'd like to thank the media and the public for their help with our original appeal."
He did not say who had found James or where he had been.
James' mother, Sharon, previously described her son as happy and popular.
He had been due to go to a church camp with his brother on Monday, but was not in his bedroom that morning.
Mrs Whalley said he had taken a holdall, and a sleeping bag packed for the camp, with him.
