A body has been discovered in a wooded area by police searching for missing teenager Imogen Tothill.

Although the human remains have not been positively identified, they are thought to be hers.

They were discovered in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, near the Ravenscroft area.

Imogen went missing on Tuesday

After failing to return to her Holmes Chapel home on Tuesday, the 17-year-old was reported missing.

Police had been looking for her all night but had come up empty-handed.

Inspector Mike Crimes had previously stated that her disappearance was “totally out of character for her” and police were “becoming increasingly concerned for her welfare”.

As per News Sky, officers had requested Imogen’s CCTV or dashcam footage to aid their investigations.

Her phone was turned off, and she was last seen on Middlewich Road in Holmes Chapel at 12.40 pm on Tuesday, according to a relative who posted an appeal on Facebook.

“We just want our beautiful girl home,” the message read. “No words can describe how much we miss and love her.”
