The boy was reported missing from Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, on Thursday, as officers launched a manhunt for a man called James Dempsey.

West Midlands Police later announced that the child had been found and thanked the public for its help in the search.

A 35-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of child abduction and remains in custody, the force said.
