Missing teenage girl 'tried to marry cousin'

A 14-YEAR-OLD schoolgirl on the run with her 23-year-old cousin asked a maverick bishop in the North to marry them before fleeing south of the Border.

A search involving police in England, the North and here has begun for schoolgirl Margaret O'Brien, who went missing four days ago and is travelling with her cousin, James O'Brien.

The investigation is being treated as child abduction because of the girl's age.
