Search underway for Kidsgrove man who's gone missing from hospital
Police say he's most likely to be on foot.
Police are concerned for the welfare of David Woodcock, from Kidsgrove, who went missing from Harplands Hospital in Stoke-on-Trent yesterday afternoon (Friday 14 May).
The 56-year-old has links to Kidsgrove and the wider Newcastle-under-Lyme area and left the hospital at about 2.40pm.
David is described as white, of stocky build, with shaven hair and no facial hair. He speaks with a speech impairment and may appear disorientated. He was wearing a grey tracksuit and slippers when he was last seen. He has no access to a vehicle so will most likely be on foot.
Anyone with any information, or who might have seen David leave Harplands around the time above, should message Staffordshire Police on Facebook or Twitter quoting incident 621 of 14 May, call 101 or alternatively contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
