A missing Midlands schoolgirl may be in the company of a wanted man facing a return to prison, according to police.
Chanelle, 15, disappeared from her home in Shropshire on Thursday, May 28. She is believed to be in the company of Kyle Brayne, aged 24.
Brayne had already been the subject of a separate appeal by West Mercia Police in May, as he was wanted on a prison recall warrant. He is known to have connections to Birmingham, Baschurch, Shrewsbury and Telford, reports Birmingham Live.
West Mercia Police launched an appeal to locate Chanelle on Sunday, May 31, suggesting she may have travelled to Wales, or could potentially be found in Bridgnorth or Oswestry.
Officers have since widened their search, stating the pair could now be anywhere across Shropshire or Wales.
