Police in Northern Ireland say they have traced the missing family of John Kelly and Melissa Teague and their six children to the Republic of Ireland.
Earlier today the police in Co Down said they were becoming increasingly concerned about the whereabouts of the family.
The couple's six children are aged between nine months and five years, and the family are originally from the Longford area.
The PSNI said the family had been traced thanks to the cooperation and support of the public.
