A MAN has been arrested on suspicion of murdering a mother of two who has been missing for three days.
The 30-year-old suspect was arrested last night and is in custody at a south London police station.
Janelle Duncan-Bailey, 25, of Pawsons Road, Thornton Heath, was last seen between 5am and 5.30am on Wednesday.
She had visited her ex-partner's house in Thornton Heath at 4.30am, to where police had been called to "a domestic incident," a Met spokesman said.
She had agreed to leave the address with police, and it is believed she asked to be taken to another friend's address in Limpsfield Avenue, the spokesman added.
"She was last seen walking towards flats in Limpsfield Avenue," he said.
Ms Duncan-Bailey was reported missing on Wednesday afternoon after she failed to collect her children from a friend's house in Bromley.
She had left her two- and seven-year old boy's there so she could go to a family function, leaving her friend's house at 4am.
Her disappearance is "totally out of character" the Met spokesman said.
She is black, 5' 5", medium build and with shoulder length black hair which could possibly be enhanced with hair extensions.
Police are urging anyone who knows of Janelle's whereabouts or has information that may help the police investigation to contact officers.
