Northumbria Police is calling for help in searching for a missing man from Throckley who did not return when he took his dogs for a walk on Saturday.
Kris Butler, 40, has not been seen since around 6.30pm - when he left his home to walk his two dogs on a track near Throckley Hall. He never returned and was formally reported missing at around 11.15pm.
Kris is understood to have mobility issues and the disappearance is said to be "completely out of character". His family and the police are increasingly concerned about his welfare and searches are ongoing.
