Ross Haughey
THE search for a missing Hampshire teenager has been called off for the evening due to the weather and light conditions.
Ross Haughey has not been seen since Sunday lunchtime and fears are growing for his welfare.
Searches have been taking place all day in the Frogham area of the New Forest, but these have now been suspended until tomorrow morning.

We don't need to have more people go missing. But in fairness, although the official search has been called off, many locals are still searching unofficially.

I would encourage as many as possible to pick an area and go for a walk in the gorgeous countryside.
Let's hope this young man turns up safe. Don't forget all those turning up to help search, make sure you keep yourself safe too, I noticed lots of Teens saying they are going out this evening, make sure your mobile is fully charged and keep to safe tracks.
