Search for man who went missing from Royal Blackburn Hospital
People are being asked not to approach him, and instead to contact police
Police are appealing for help in finding Matthew Holbrook who has gone missing from Royal Blackburn Hospital.
The 38-year-old was last seen yesterday (April 26th) at around 5pm within the grounds of the hospital where he was receiving treatment.
Matthew is described as 6ft tall, of slim build with blue eyes, a full beard and short dark brown hair (he is pictured above before he had his hair cut short). He also has a tattoo on his neck.
He was last seen wearing a black cap, dark coloured work combat trousers and red trainers.
As well as Blackburn, Matthew also has links to Littleborough and Manchester city centre.
Officers are asking that members of the public do not approach Matthew, who may be confused, but instead contact us with a description of his location and clothing.
PC Lee Aspden of Lancashire Police said: "We are concerned for Matthew’s health and well-being and would urge members of the public to help us with any sighting of him so we can get him back to the hospital."
