The police helicopter took to the skies to help officers as the search for a man missing from his home entered its third day.

Emergency services began the search for Clavin Skinley, from Loose, on Tuesday after he was last seen at around 7.45am on Monday.

Police also deployed a drone to assist in the search for the 58-year-old who is white, 5ft 10in, with cropped dark greying hair and is of a medium build.

The unmanned vehicle was launched in Bockingford Lane, Tovil on Tuesday afternoon.

Mr Skinley has a tattoo on his neck which says the word Sue and a West Ham Football Club tattoo on his hand/wrist. He is possibly wearing a three-quarter length navy blue coat.

Inspector Mark Stubberfield said: “It is totally out of character for Calvin to go missing like this and we are becoming increasingly concerned for his welfare. We ask anyone who may have seen him to call us immediately.”

If you have seen Calvin please phone Kent Police on 101 quoting reference number 18-1200.
Anyone concerned about the drone can call Kent Fire and Rescue Service can call 01622 692121.
