A missing Norfolk 84-year-old has been found safe and well after being missing for more than a week.

Officers established Mr Bampton travelled from Loddon to King’s Lynn by bus, via Norwich, where it was thought he may have then travelled to the Grimsby area.

A spokesperson for Norfolk Police today confirmed Mr Bampton had been found safe and well on Sunday, August 30 in Boston, Lincolnshire, and thanked the public and media for sharing the appeal.
