Billy Sharp, 29, was last seen at 6.40pm on Thursday where he lives in De La Warr Road, Bexhill.

PC Ben Barnatt said: "Billy has some mental health issues, which is why we are concerned for his whereabouts. He is described as white, stocky build with cropped brown hair. He was last seen wearing a grey tracksuit and white trainers."

"He is originally from the Folkestone area of Kent and we think we may well have travelled in that direction."

"We are appealing to anyone who might have seen him to report it to us on 101 or email 101@sussex.pnn.police.uk quoting serial 1033 of 1/5."
