He's quite vulnerable. That's the only info I have from the police at present. If seen, call police on 101. Thanks.”They said: “A resident left the care home via a fire exit which immediately triggered an alarm.“Staff immediately carried out a head count to identify who was missing and four members of staff proceeded to follow his route to retrieve him.
