Police are concerned for his welfare due to his health conditions.

He is believed to wearing some form of hat, potentially with a number of metal pins within the front of the hat.

”We are now able to give a better update on his movements.”

Mr Lee got on a bus in Douglas on Thursday and got off in Foxdale. He was last sighted walking from Foxdale in the direction of the Ballamodha which would mean passing South Barrule plantation. This was at 1:30pm on Thursday. 

Police continued: “As such our efforts were focussed on that area from yesterday evening.

“We would ask that the public stay away from the above area of South Barrule plantation  at this time as we will have scent sensitive dogs in the area tracking. We do appreciate the public’s help and we will keep you informed of developments or assistance we may require.

The below is vitally important.
