A missing man, who police thought may have travelled to Weymouth, has been found. 

Police launched an appeal yesterday after a man went missing from Fareham in Hampshire. 

Derek Britton, 60, was last seen on Tuesday, July 3 at around 11.30am, in the Central Road area of Fareham.

Since then, police said he had not been in contact with family and they were growing increasingly concerned for his welfare.

A Hampshire Police spokesman added that Mr Britton may have travelled to Weymouth.

Police confirmed this morning Mr Britton had been found.
