Concern for missing Exeter pensioner

Police are increasingly concerned for the welfare of 77-year-old Lesley Roger Irish, who has been missing from the Heavitree area of Exeter since Tuesday 25th October 2016.

He last made contact with his family on the evening of Monday 24th October. His disappearance is out of character.

Mr Irish is described as white, 5’ 5” tall and of very slight build. He has short thin grey hair, bald on top. He is likely to be wearing a coat, walking boots and rucksack.

He may be driving a 7-year-old red Mitsubishi Colt saloon with registration WG62 DWM.

Police have made extensive searches throughout the county, and it is thought that Mr Irish may have travelled further afield, possibly to the Jurassic Coast area of Dorset.

If you see Mr Irish, or know of his whereabouts, please call 999 immediately and quote log 835 of 25th October 2016.
