A north Cumbrian woman who was reported missing has been found.

Cumbria police said that 42-year-old Fiona Hodgson, from Rockcliffe, was found just after midnight.

She was last seen at lunchtime yesterday when she left work in the Carleton area of Carlisle.

Her car - a black Ford Focus - was found in Wetheral yesterday evening.

Police have confirmed that a helicopter was deployed during the search.

Coastguard rescue teams from Maryport, Burgh-by-Sands and Annan were also joined by Maryport Inshore Rescue.

She was taken to hospital after being found by a police dog, but a spokesman said police could not confirm whether she had been released.
