Missing girls: two arrested by UK police

Two men were being held by British police today in connection with the disappearance of schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman.

The men were arrested after refusing to co-operate with officers hunting for the 10-year-olds, who have not been seen since Sunday evening.

Acting Detective Superintendent, David Beck, leading the hunt, said he did not believe the arrests were a "significant development" but said they were being held in separate Cambridgeshire Police Stations so they could be interviewed because of the seriousness of the inquiry.
