“Brian was last seen two weeks ago and we are continuing to appeal for information from the public to aid our investigation.

“Since his disappearance we’ve been conducting several enquiries, including a number of searches across the local area, but so far we’ve not had any further sightings of Brian.

“If anyone thinks that they may have seen Brian, or anyone matching his description, please get in touch with us. We would also like to appeal directly to Brian. Please contact us to let us know that you are OK. Your family are incredibly worried about you.

“I would also ask residents in the local area to review any CCTV or ring doorbells, to see if they have any footage of Brian. I’m specifically urging people to check their cameras between 6.30am and 8am on Thursday 17 August to establish Brian’s movements after leaving the hospital.

“The same goes for anyone with any dashcam footage which may aid our investigation.”
