Two men have been arrested on suspicion of abducting children after two missing teens were discovered in the back of a car.
Humberside Police were alerted that one of the girls had disappeared on Sunday night (April 16) and information established that she could be in the West Yorkshire area of Hull in the UK, with another teenage girl, Hull Live reported.
Following the investigation, which brought police back to the area, unmarked police vehicles halted a car on Shannon Road, Longhill, which had the missing girls sitting in the back seat.

An 18-year-old and 19-year-old man, both from West Yorkshire, were arrested by police and remain in custody.
One witness made remarks at seeing the aftermath of the discovery of the two teens. She stated: "I didn't see everything but what I did see was awful.
"Unmarked police cars were there and officers were arresting a man outside Booze Blitz. Thankfully, a girl was able to be reunited with her dad after she had gone missing."
A spokesperson for Humberside Police said that officers investigated after a report was received on Sunday night (16 April) that a teenage girl was missing.
Following this, it was found that she was with another teenage girl and they were both identified as potentially being in the West Yorkshire area yesterday (Monday, 17 April).
"Further enquiries were carried out in West Yorkshire, that led the investigation back to the Humberside area, where a car was stopped last night on Shannon Road, in Hull, and the two girls were found sat in the back of the vehicle. They have both been returned home safely to their families.
"Two men, 18 and 19-years-old, from West Yorkshire were arrested at the scene on suspicion of child abduction and remain in our custody assisting officers with enquiries," the statement added.
