The police helicopter is over Swindon tonight after a search operation was launched for a missing person.

A large number of police vehicles are patrolling the Park North, Eldene, Liden and Nythe areas of the town in a search that began at around 7.30pm.

A search on this scale usually means the individual is classed as a high-risk (incredibly vulnerable) missing person.

Wiltshire Police have not yet released a public missing persons appeal, but if one is released we will provide an update.
