Police in South Devon are appealing for help to locate a reported missing man.

Morley (pictured) who is aged 25 years is described as being a white man 5’7” in height, slim build, with dark short hair and facial stubble.
[Please note: The image is the best photo that the police have received. The injuries he has in it are nothing to do with him being reported as missing]
It is not known what he is wearing.
Police are carrying out local enquires in an effort to locate him and are appealing for help from the public.
