    A body has been found in the search for missing 25-year-old Leeds woman Molly Ann Garbutt.

    North Yorkshire Police joined West Yorkshire Police in the search today after Molly's black Renault Clio was seen in the Grassington area last night and then found just before 8am today parked near Dibbles Bridge at Hebden, about two miles from Greenhow in the former Harrogate district.

    But in a statement tonight, North Yorkshire Police said the search "has been called off after a body was found at around 3.15pm today".

    The statement added:

    "While formal identification has not yet taken place, Molly’s family have been informed about the death and they are being supported by the police.
    "We ask that their privacy is respected at this difficult time as we prepare a report for the coroner."


    RAF Mountain Rescue, Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association and a HM Coastguard helicopter joined the search for Molly, whose disappearance on Tuesday night led police to say they had  “immediate concerns for her welfare”.

    Officers urged anyone with information that could assist their enquiries to call 101, select option 4, and speak to the force control room. Quote reference number 12240057708.
