Police appeal as man goes missing while detained under Mental Health Act

Police have renewed an appeal for help to find a man who went missing while detained under the Mental Health Act.

Andrew Richards went missing during an escorted visit to Bury with health workers last Wednesday (May 10), police said. The 54-year-old is now wanted by officers on suspicion of absconding from lawful custody.

Members of the public should not approach him if they see him, but should contact police. Officers said previously Andrew was last seen wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, black shoes and a formal, long black coat.
