Man Aged 78 From Eastbourne Goes Missing

Police on Thursday night (July 2) were searching for pensioner Gary Thomas Jones, who has gone missing from Eastbourne.

Officers said the 78-year-old has dementia, diabetes and Parkinson’s disease — and there are concerns for his welfare.

Gary left his care home in the town about 11am today (Thursday 2 July) and has not returned since.

He is white, about 5’6”, of medium build, with white hair.

He was last seen wearing a blue shirt and a black jacket, and is not believed to be in possession of a mobile phone.

Police were urging the public to be aware that Gary has been reported missing, and to check any sheds, garages or outbuildings.

If he is spotted, or there is information that could help find him, officers requested calls to 999, quoting serial 1195 of 02/07.
