THE search for missing 53-year-old Mitchell West is continuing across the county.
Police are concerned for the man who has dementia that has been missing from the Hope Corner Lane area of Taunton since 9.20pm on Tuesday (April 3).
Mitchell is white, 5ft 8ins tall, of slim build, with blue eyes and light brown hair.
His appearance has changed significantly since the photo released was taken. His hair is longer and has a 'bushy, unkempt beard'.
We're also appealing for residents in the Hope Corner Lane area of Taunton to check outbuildings for missing Mitchell West.
