Police have found a five-year-old Taupo girl who has been missing for almost two weeks.

The girl was taken by her father from her school in Taupo on 6 November and was located on Tuesday morning in the suburb of Massey in west Auckland.

A man, 31, is under arrest and will appear in the Waitakere District Court later in the day for breaching a protection order.

The child is now back with her legal guardian.
