87 with Alzheimer's goes missing in Teignmouth

Our volunteers had an early morning alarm call this morning at 06:47 to assist Devon and Cornwall Police with a search for an 87-year-old gentleman with Alzheimer's who had gone missing in the Teignmouth area. Fortunately, he was found safe and well and we were stood down on our way to assist.

At the same time, an incident was just starting in Exmouth which we handed over to our DRG colleagues based at Okehampton whilst we were dealing with the Teignmouth job. Fortunately, that also came to a rapid conclusion and the team were stood down on route.
