Teenager caught posting 'Claudia Lawrence' message

A TEENAGER was arrested and cautioned today for posting a bogus message on Facebook which claimed to be from missing chef Claudia Lawrence.

North Yorkshire Police said an 18-year-old man from Didcot, Oxfordshire, was cautioned after he admitted making a malicious communication and wasting police time.

The message appeared on the "Claudia Lawrence Investigation" Facebook page in November 2009. Miss Lawrence was last seen on March 18, 2009, after leaving work at York University.
