Teen arrested on suspicion of murder after missing girl, 14, found dead

A 14-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a girl of the same age was found dead in South Wales.

Named only by police as Lilly, she was discovered in the Duffryn Park area of Blaina on Monday night.

She had been reported missing and was last seen wearing a long black dress in the town's high street around 6.50pm on Saturday.

Blaina is in the South Wales valleys, about 18 miles north of Cardiff.

Detective Chief Inspector Steven Thomas said: "We understand that this will cause distress and concern amongst our communities.

"We have a large police presence in the area at this time as enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances of the death. Our officers are here and available for you to speak to."

Anyone with information can call Gwent Police on 101, direct message the force on Facebook or X, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
