The body of a 92-year-old man who was reported missing on Boxing Day has been found, police have said.

Frank Fidgeon, from Bodham, near Holt, was reported missing just after 4.30pm on December 26 after he had failed to show up to a planned visit to a family member at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.

He had left his home in his black Nissan Qashqai at around 1.30pm that day.

A passer-by reported finding an elderly man unconscious on the ground in Rightup Lane, Wymondham, shortly after midday today (December 27).
