A body has been found in the search for a woman who has been missing on the Isle of Wight since Sunday.

Rosie Johnson, 22, from Aberdeenshire, was last seen at the PGL Little Canada activity centre in Wootton where she worked.

Hampshire Constabulary said formal identification had not taken place but Miss Johnson's family had been told.

Shortly before 17:00 BST, the force announced officers had discovered the body of a woman in Wootton.

A spokesman said a file was being prepared for the coroner.

Ms Johnson, who is the niece of Edinburgh South MSP Daniel Johnson, failed to turn up for work on Monday and was reported missing by her employer.

large air and land search was launched on Tuesday involving police and volunteers from Isle of Wight Search and Rescue, Hampshire Search and Rescue (SAR) and the coastguard.

They searched in and around Wootton Creek, near the adventure centre, with assistance from mud rescue teams from Ventnor SAR.

Following the discovery of a body, Mr Johnson published a post on Twitter saying the news was "deeply upsetting".
