Family and Police Concerned for Missing Hampshire Man

Police are becoming increasingly concerned for the welfare of a 47-year old man from Tadley in North Hampshire. Patience Maswaya, 47, (known as Pat) from Burney Bit, in the town was last heard from this morning, Tuesday, January 3, by a friend who contacted police as she was very worried about his wellbeing. As part of their work to find him officers have since searched his home and other areas where he might be locally including parts of nearby Pamber Forest but have yet to locate him. Pat is described as black and 6ft tall. It’s believed he was wearing black trainers and a black duffel coat when he went missing. Officers are urging anyone who knows where he is or thinks they have seen him today to get in touch with them by calling 999. They would like to appeal directly to Pat as well and are asking he gets in touch to let them and his family know he is safe and well.
