Police are  trying to find 72-year-old John Thompson, from Chester, who went missing on Sunday afternoon.
John was last seen when he went for a routine walk at around 2pm. He last spoke to his wife at around 6pm, saying that he was lost in a field. Despite repeated attempts to call him, John has since not answered his phone and there has been no other contact since.

It’s possible that he is in the Saughall area, but he may have walked along tracks towards Wepre Park in North Wales.

John has dementia, so officers are growing increasingly concerned for his wellbeing.

He is described as white, 5ft 6ins tall with very white hair. He was wearing a navy-coloured, thin gym jacket, green trousers and walking boots.

Anyone who knows of John’s whereabouts or who sees someone matching his description is asked to call 101 immediately, quoting IML 686215.
