A missing person was found in Nantwich after an extensive police search.

The force helicopter was heard above the Stapeley and Audlem Road area of the town for around an hour late last night (December 10).

Today, Nantwich officers confirmed they were called out to a missing man who they “had concerns for”.

Sgt Richard Tomlinson, of Nantwich Neighbourhood Policing Unit, said: “We called out the helicopter to look for a missing person we had concerns for.

“He had last been seen running off into fields.

“The helicopter is the most efficient way of searching large areas, especially at night using infra-red cameras.”

The man was found by a Nantwich patrol at around midnight, safe and well.
