Police are appealing for help to find William Martin, also known as Bill, who has been reported missing from Ludlow in Shropshire.

The 66-year-old was reported missing on 12 October, and officers believe he may now be in the Chester area.

William is described as around 5ft 2in tall, of average build, with grey facial hair. He has ‘MUFC’ tattooed on his neck and the words ‘love’ and ‘hate’ on his knuckles.

He is known to often wear a hat and glasses, and was last seen wearing a blue and white hoodie with dark blue trousers.

Officers from West Mercia Police are asking anyone who may have seen William, or who has information about where he might be, to get in touch.

A spokesperson said:
“If you know where he is right now, please call 999. If you have any other information about his whereabouts, please contact us on 101.”
