A nine-year-old child was found safe after a search in the area of Prince Edward Collegiate Institute earlier this week.

Members of the Prince Edward County OPP assisted with a search for a nine-year-old child who was last seen at PECI around 11:30 a.m. on Monday.

The student had reportedly been missing for approximately 30 minutes, and an extensive search was commenced by PEC OPP with additional resources including the Emergency Response Unit and Canine Unit.

With the support from the community, the child was located safely approximately one hour after they went missing.

The OPP would like to thank everyone who assisted in the search.
