    Concerns for an elderly man missing from his Nelson home for more than two weeks

    Concerns for an elderly man missing from his Nelson home for more than two weeks


    Richard Ford has been missing from his Tahunanui home since the morning of April 24.

    Police say the 71-year-old hasn't been in touch with family since, which is very out of character.

    Locals who may have information about Ford's whereabouts have been asked to contact Nelson Police.
