A search is under way for a woman in Northern Ireland who phoned a charity in distress last night and said she was going into Labour.

Police this morning issued an urgent public appeal after the woman called the charity in Co Antrim late last night.

“The call could been made from anywhere in Northern Ireland”, a police spokesman said. “Police want to make sure that this woman received all the support she needs, and want to help.”

The woman, or anyone with information, has been asked to contact police immediately on 0845 600 8000.
