Polie want to make sure the girl, thought to be about 12 years old, got home safely from the Waitawheta track, near Waikino. A girl seen limping along a Waikato walking track on Wednesday afternoon has sparked concern. The fair-haired girl was seen by herself and about an hour into the Waitawheta bush track, near Waikino, police said. A person who saw the girl around 2pm, and later rang police with concerns, thought she was about 12 years old. A land search and rescue team couldn't find any sign of the girl on the track - which comes off Franklin Road - and police hadn't had reports of anyone missing.
