Community rescue teams have called off searches in Lurgan after a missing schoolboy was found 'safe and well'.
Nine year old Connor Creaney was last seen at 3.30pm on Thursday, 15 February in the Shankill area of Lurgan.
He'd been out playing with Friends but failed to return home sparking overnight searches.
The PSNI, Community Rescue service and police helicopter were involved in the operation.
When he went missing Conor was described as being 4ft 5in tall, plump build with brown hair and was wearing a navy and blue jacket, navy tracksuit bottoms and grey trainers.
He was found safe and well just before 10am on Friday morning.
Sean McCarry from Community Rescue told QRadio the search had been stood down and there was a sense of 'relief' among the team.
PSNI Chief Inspector Jon Burrows said: "The 9 year old boy missing from the Shankhill area of Lurgan has been found and is safe.
"We will continue to support the family and the young boy.
"Thank you to everyone who searched for him, we were very worried but the collective response demonstrated a true community spirit."
