An elite runner from Sierra Leone - who went missing moments after finishing the London Marathon - has been found.
Scotland Yard launched an appeal to find Mami Konneh Lahun, 24, when she did not return to her temporary accommodation in Greenwich where she had been staying since arriving in the UK on April 7.
A police spokesman said: “She has today been found safe and well, having returned to the address in Greenwich.”
She came 20th in yesterday's race, and was due to fly home today.
Yesterday’s London Marathon was “tinged with sadness” however, after a man collapsed and died at the finish line.
The 42-year-old man, who has not been named, was given medical attention immediately after finishing the race but was pronounced dead at hospital.
Hugh Brasher, race director of the Virgin Money London Marathon, said: “We did very unfortunately have one death of a runner, who had finished and our thoughts are very much with the friends and family of that runner.
“Overall it was a fantastic day, but it always is tinged with a little bit of sadness when something like that happens.”
The last death was in 2012 when event hairdresser Claire Squires, 30, from North Kilworth, Leicestershire, collapsed a mile from the finish line and died later from cardiac failure.
She was raising money for the Samaritans and in the week after her death donations to her fundraising website jumped from £500 to more than £1m.
An estimated 36,000 people took part in yesterday’s race, the 34th London Marathon, from elite athletes to fun-runners raising money for charities.
