Missing man found safe and well

An elderly man who went missing on Dartmoor overnight has been located.

Police, the Dartmoor rescue group and RNAS Culdrose searched through much of the night and resumed their search this morning.

 82 year old Eddie Golding had been letterboxing with his daughter on Dartmoor yesterday afternoon.

The two, who're on holiday from Kent, decided to split up at a Tor and meet back at Harford Gate, near Ivybridge, where they had parked the car.

But the alarm was raised when Mr Golding failed to turn up.

An extensive search involving police officers, the dartmoor rescue group and a helicopter from RNAS Culdrose continued into the early hours of this morning.

The search resumed today - and Mr Golding has now been found safe and well.
