A 12-year-old reported missing in Auckland has been found safe and well, police say.

Kassius was earlier reported missing by her family after leaving her home in Glendene on 12 January.

Police believed Kassius was in the Sunnyvale or New Lynn areas.

Because of her age, her family and police were concerned, a police spokesperson said.

Police thanked those who got in touch with information.
