A search is under way for a missing schoolgirl who has disappeared with her pet dog.

Officers are trying to trace Hayley Maddison, who was last seen in Darlington on Monday lunch time, but could possibly be in the Washington and Sunderland areas.

The 14-year-old has contacts in both areas, but could have travelled further afield in the North-east – possibly by train.
