A MOTHER and her three-year-old son have been found safe and well after going missing more than two weeks ago, police said.
Rebecca Minnock went on the run with son Ethan 18 days ago after after a court ruled he should live with his father.
Avon and Somerset Police said she was in the Oxford area when she came forward and made contact with officers yesterday evening.
Detective Chief Inspector Marie Wright said: "This is the news we had been hoping for and I am grateful to Becky for coming forward.
"Both Becky and Ethan will now receive the support they need and the appropriate welfare arrangements will be made.
"I would like to thank the public and the media for their assistance throughout this investigation."
Ms Minnock told the Daily Mail: "My only regret would be the trouble that my family have gotten into, all the police efforts and time I've wasted. Obviously everyone's been concerned but we've both been absolutely fine.
"He's been safe and happy and I don't have any regrets because I've spent so much more time with him than I would've been able to."
