Police have launched a hunt for a missing Hampshire pensioner.

Andrew Redpath, 67, has been missing from his home in Milford-on-Sea 8pm from about 8pm last night.

He is known to often travel to the Christchurch area and police are conducting extensive searches and enquiries to try and locate him.

Officers are concerned for his welfare because he suffers from dementia.

Mr Redpath is described as 5ft 8ins tall, with a slim build and short grey hair.

He was last seen wearing a polo shirt and shorts.

Anyone who sees him or knows where he is should call Hampshire Constabulary on 101 or 999 in an emergency.
