A MAN who went missing on the Isle of Wight this morning has been found safe and well, police have said.

Jacob Williams, 20, had been last seen in Carter Street, Sandown, at 7.45am, after getting out of a car in which he was a passenger.

Officers appealed for help as Mr Williams does not normally go anywhere on his own and needs regular medication, which he had not taken and did not have with him.

However a Hampshire police spokesman said just before 1.30pm that Mr Williams had been found safe and well.

No other details have been released.
