Extended search for missing person at Widecombe Fair

The team were called at 17:54 to search for a 67-year-old male who had gone missing around midday at the famous Widecombe Fair.

The man had become separated from his wife earlier in the day and despite searches by Police Officers and the Police helicopter, there was no trace of the individual 

Dartmoor Rescue Ashburton volunteers were deployed and began searching the area in and around Widecombe. Shortly after our deployment, the man was located at his home in the South Hams and we were stood down.
