Residents have been urged to be on the lookout for a missing pensioner after he failed to return from Penryn Asda.

An appeal was issued on social media by Laura Ross who said her father-in-law Phil had been missing since a trip to the supermarket earlier today (Saturday 29th).

Laura said:

"Looking for my father-in-law who was taken out this afternoon by a neighbour and hasn't returned. Have spoken to police, all the shops, hospitals.

"He is 70 years old, has green khaki trousers on, a black leather jacket with a skull on the back, and is on crutches. We need to find him."

Anyone who has seen a man matching the description is asked to contact Laura or Lisa Tresidder on Facebook.
