POLICE are appealing for help to find a missing man. 

Luke Bolton was last seen at his home in Altrincham at 2.40pm on September 2, before he got onto a tram towards Piccadilly in Manchester City Centre.

It is believed the 48-year-old has links to the Southampton area. 

He is white, around 5ft 6in tall, of large build with short, grey hair and speaks with a Manchester accent.

He always wears glasses and may be wearing grey tracksuit bottoms, blue trainers, and a big, black parka-style jacket with a fur lined hood.

Detective Constable Emma Cyprien of Great Manchester Police's Trafford Borough, said: “We need to find Luke as soon as we can as he may need urgent medical attention.

“We know he hasn’t got his medication with him, which he will need to take every day.

“Luke has connections throughout the country and we believe he may have links to the Leeds, Kent, Southampton and Preston areas.”

Anyone who sees Luke should contact police on 101 or 0161 856 7747 quoting 1355 of 02/09/18.
