UPDATE 11.15am: Mr Wood has now returned home. Police have thanked the public for their help.

CONCERN is growing for the welfare of a Worcester man who has been missing from his home since yesterday morning.

Daniel Wood, aged 26, of London Road, was last seen at 10.50am leaving his home.

Officers believe he may still be in Worcestershire but he also has strong links with Gloucester.

He is 5ft 6ins, of stocky build and is balding with a shaved head.

He was last seen wearing a black vest with white markings, a black baseball cap, blue denim jeans, brown leather trainers and a large, purple Head branded holdall.

PC Dave Hussey said: “We are very concerned for Daniel’s welfare and we need to trace him as soon as possible.

"If anyone spots Daniel we urge them to contact West Mercia Police as soon as possible.”

Anyone with information should call 101.
