Police have issued an update on a mum who went missing with her newborn baby and partner.
Constance Marten is being urged to contact the emergency services or go to the nearest hospital, having been believed to have given birth "very recently". Neither her or her child have been seen by a doctor.
She was last seen with the baby's father Mark Gordon, at about 6.30pm on Thursday. Police said the pair's vehicle broke down near junction four of the M61 on January 5 and the family left safely on foot, reports the Manchester Evening News.
