A 12-year-old girl who went missing from Markham has been reunited with her family.

Police said the girl went missing at about midnight on Jan. 2 from her home near Highway 48 and 16th Avenue.

Her family became concerned when she did not reach out, and said it was out of character for her to go missing.

Police called off the search late Saturday night when she suddenly showed up at her family home on, after being gone for about 24 hours.

Officers did not say where the girl had been, but said she is in good health.
