A vulnerable 80-year-old man has gone missing from his home in West Norwood.

Police are appealing for information to trace Francis Wynter who was last seen at his home in Millhouse Place at about 6.30pm yesterday.

Mr Francis has Alzheimer's and diabetes which require regular medication so police are urgently trying to locate him.

He is described as a black male, of slim build and about 5ft.

Francis was believed to be wearing a white baseball cap with a red maple leaf logo, a blue hooded jacket and blue casual trousers at the time of his disappearance.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Lambeth Missing Persons Unit on 0208 721 3557.
