A 14-year-old girl and her one-year-old son, who were re­port­ed miss­ing ear­li­er this week, have been found safe in To­ba­go.

Of­fi­cers from the Child Pro­tec­tion Unit and the To­ba­go Di­vi­sion lo­cat­ed Linel Noel and son Kayleb at a house along Dar­ryl Spring Road, Scar­bor­ough, at 11.30 pm on Sat­ur­day.

A 31-year-old man who was with them in the house was al­so de­tained.

The chil­dren had been re­port­ed miss­ing to the Cou­va Po­lice Sta­tion on Sep­tem­ber 11.

Ac­cord­ing to re­ports, both mi­nors were safe and the Chil­dren’s Au­thor­i­ty was con­tact­ed to pro­vide fur­ther as­sis­tance.

Noel and her ba­by had gone miss­ing from their Fan­ny Vil­lage Point Fortin home on Sep­tem­ber 9.

Rel­a­tives re­port­ed that Linel, who is the ba­by’s moth­er, left home af­ter an ar­gu­ment with a fam­i­ly mem­ber. Her great-grand­moth­er, Josephine Noel, last saw them be­fore go­ing on an er­rand. When she re­turned, Linel and Kayleb were gone, along with some of their be­long­ings.

Fam­i­ly mem­bers were wor­ried fol­low­ing her dis­ap­pear­ance, es­pe­cial­ly giv­en the girl’s age.

One rel­a­tive had told Guardian Me­dia rel­a­tives were frus­trat­ed that de­spite re­port­ing her preg­nan­cy to the po­lice, no ac­tion had been tak­en.
