Police say that they are growing increasingly concerned for the welfare of a 79-year-old man who was reported missing from Dartmouth on Friday 20 December.
David Evans was last seen in person on the Dartmouth water taxi on Thursday 12 December. The last known contact with him was on 17 December.
Searches and enquiries are being carried out in an effort to locate him and police are appealing for the public to immediately report any sightings of him.
HM Coastguard, Dart Harbour and RNLI Lifeboats conducted searches of the water around Dartmouth but these have since stood down.
David is described as around 5ft 6ins tall, of slim build, with short greying hair. It is unclear what he was last seen wearing.
Police are keen to speak to anyone who has seen him on or since the 12 December.
If you see David or know of his whereabouts please call police on 999, quoting log number 283 of 20/12/24
