An 85-year-old man from Stowmarket who was reported missing has returned home safe and well.

Police had appealed for help to trace Gordan Dark, who had not been seen for 14 days – but had spoken on the phone on Sunday, August 8.

A spokesman for Suffolk police confirmed he has since returned home safe and well.

The spokesman said: "Gordon Dark has now returned home safe and well.

"Police would like to thank members of the public and the media for their assistance with this appeal."
