A DIABETIC man who went missing from his Leominster home at the weekend would be in need of insulin.

Neil Victor Pritchard is said to be in a depressed state.

The family of the 36-year-old, of Westgate, last saw him on Saturday evening when Police say he gave them a 'false story'.

He said he would contact them on Sunday morning but did not do so.

Mr Pritchard is described as 6ft 4in. tall, medium build, and was wearing blue denim jeans, a red and blue checked shirt, a black leather jacket, brown Trader boots and may have been carrying a rucksack.

Any information about his whereabouts should be passed on to Hereford Police on 01432 276422.
