UPDATE: We're pleased to announce that missing 86-year-old Mike Warburton from Goostrey has been located safe and well.

Macclesfield: Do you know the whereabouts of Mike Warburton?

The pensioner is from the parish of Goostrey, 12 miles west of Macclesfield, but can't be found in the area.

The 86-year-old is missing from his home in Goostrey and his family are becoming increasingly concerned

Mike has Alzheimer's and can get confused. He is believed to be in a silver Mercedes C270.

It is unknown if Mike himself is driving the car.

He is described as white, around 5' 6" tall, of medium build with grey hair and glasses.

Inspector Christian Watkins said: "A number of enquiries are underway to find Mike and from our initial investigation we believe that he may have travelled into the Cheadle Hulme area of Manchester before returning to Cheshire at around 3.30pm.

"However, he has yet to return to the family home and his family are becoming increasingly concerned for his welfare.

"As part of our investigation we're keen to hear from anyone who thinks they may have seen Mike or anyone with any information in relation to his whereabouts.

"The same goes for anyone with any CCTV or dashcam footage which may aid our investigation."

Goostrey is near to the Jodrell Bank Observatory.

Nearby neighbouring Macclesfield parishes within walking distance include Lower Withington and Whisterfield.

Anyone with information or footage that may assist officers in finding Mike is asked to call Cheshire Constabulary on 101, quoting IML 1138381 or report it via this webpage.
