Detectives searching for a 13-year-old girl missing from home for nearly a week have arrested a 37-year-old man on suspicion of child abduction.
The man was arrested in Bradford, West Yorkshire, by police involved in the search for Erika Kacicova, from Sheffield.
South Yorkshire Police said the man was being taken to Sheffield to be interviewed by officers.
Erika was last seen leaving her home in Darnall at 16:00 BST on 5 August.
On Sunday police, who have classed the case as a "critical incident", said there had been reported sightings of Erika but none of them had been confirmed.
'Normal teenager'A 22-year-old man arrested on suspicion of child abduction has been bailed.
Det Insp Helen Tate, of South Yorkshire Police, said Erika had been missing before but it was out of character for her to disappear for so long.
She said: "We are getting increasingly concerned for her welfare as time goes on.
"Erika is only 13, she is young and a normal teenager, who listens to music and spends time with her family and friends. We want her to return safe and well."

Det Insp Helen Tate appeals for Erika to contact them if she can
The detective said Erika's family were "very distraught" and her younger brother and sister were "missing her terribly".
The force's search has centred on the Sheffield and Bradford areas where it is known the teenager has friends and there have been reported but unconfirmed sightings of her in both cities.
Police have also received "dozens" of calls from members of the public, Det Insp Tate said.
"Please keep these calls coming in. We will look into any information you can give us," she added.
Erika is described as being about 4ft 11in (1.5m) tall, of slim build with long, dark brown, straight hair and brown eyes.
She was said to have been wearing dark blue jeans, and a denim short-sleeved top over a pink Adidas zip up hoodie when she left her Poole Road home in the Darnall area of the city at about 16:00 BST.
The hoodie has yellow stripes down the arms and a white Adidas motif on the front . She was also wearing denim style ankle boots.
Erika speaks Slovakian and English with an Eastern European accent, police said.
The man on bail is from Bradford and handed himself in to police on Friday.
