Updated: Search for missing York man
Police in York are appealing for help to locate 76-year-old Anthony Atkinson who has been reported missing from home.
Anthony, who is from the Acomb area, was last seen by his family at around 8.30am on Tuesday when he left for a walk.
It is completely out of character for him not to return home and to be out of contact on his mobile phone for so long.
It is also believed he is without his regular medication which has heightened the concern for his welfare and safety.
