Missing man Matthew Pritchard who was thought to have travelled to New Forest is found

A MISSING man thought to have travelled to the New Forest and possibly wearing a paramedic uniform was found within 48 hours.

Police had launched an appeal yesterday (Tuesday) to locate Matthew Pritchard, who had last been seen leaving his home address in Whiteley, near Fareham, at 10.30am on Monday.

Believing the 39-year-old may have been wearing a South Central Ambulance Service uniform, officers were “very concerned” for his welfare.

But, around 9pm last night, they confirmed he had been successfully located.
