Police are appealing for the public’s help in their search for a missing man with learning disabilities from Finsbury.

Hugh Yorke-Barber, 61, has been missing from his home in Epworth Street since 3.30pm on Monday.

Officers said they were growing increasingly concerned for Mr Yorke-Barber as he has learning disabilities and requires regular medication for his epilepsy.

They said he often gets the route 43 bus from City Road, Finsbury to Islington and is known to frequent Chapel Market.

Anyone with any information should call 101 quoting the reference 14MIS034240.
