Officers are renewing their appeal to find a man who has gone missing from Wareham and are issuing CCTV footage of him from the morning he disappeared.
Steven Clarke, 54, has been missing since Thursday 26 January 2023 and the last confirmed sighting of him was outside the Garden Gate Tea Room in North Street at 10.30am. Further sightings have been reported to Dorset Police, but these have not been confirmed at this time.
Steven is described as five feet 10 inches tall, of slim build and with brown unkempt hair. He often uses a gold-coloured walking stick.
Chief Inspector Greg Tansill, of Dorset Police, said: “We have been carrying out a large number of searches and enquiries overnight and today in a bid to locate Steven, but sadly these have so far not been successful. I am grateful to colleagues at Dorset Search and Rescue Service (DorSAR) and NPAS for their ongoing help.
“As a result of our initial enquiries, we have located CCTV footage of Steven in One Stop in Wareham at 9.10am on Thursday 26 January. While we have located the jacket, it is possible that he may have gone missing in the remaining clothing.
“We are becoming very worried for Steven and I would urge anyone who has seen him, knows of his whereabouts or has seen a man matching the description given to please get in touch.
“Finally, if Steven sees this appeal, I urge him to please contact us as we just want to know you are OK.”
Anyone with information or knowledge as to Steven’s whereabouts is asked to contact Dorset Police at www.dorset.police.uk/contact or by calling 101, quoting incident number 28:263.
