POLICE hunting for missing children’s holiday worker Rosie Johnson have today found a body five days after she vanished.
The 22-year-old disappeared on the Isle of Wight on Sunday from the PGL Little Canada activity centre.
Cops searching for the zoology graduate today confirmed they had found a body but formal identification has yet to take place.
Her family has been informed of the grisly discovery and the death is not being treated as suspicious.
Rosie, originally from Glasgow, was last seen on a creek next to the holiday park at 10.15pm on Sunday.
The field studies instructor at 50-acre Little Canada was reported missing on Monday when she failed to show at work.
A huge air and land was launched the next day as cops frantically tried to find the missing worker.
SEARCH FOR MISSING CAMP WORKER
Her distraught family said she had gone for a walk and spoke to her mum just hours before disappearing.
They explained her disappearance was totally out of character, with mum Julia and her uncle, sister and brother travelling to the Isle of Wight.
Boyfriend Brendan Storer posted an appeal by Hampshire Police on social media with the message: “Please please please share.”
Her uncle Daniel Johnson – the Labour MSP for Edinburgh Southern – had also tweeted asking for information.
The coastguard have been assisting police in their search efforts on water close to where she vanished.
