CCTV shows missing woman, 73, in street in pyjamas

Mary White was captured on CCTV on Railway Road

Police carrying out "extensive" searches for a 73-year-old missing woman have released a CCTV image of her walking along a street in her pyjamas.

Mary White was last seen at her home in Nelson Avenue, Downham Market, Norfolk, at about 22:00 BST on Tuesday. She was reported missing by her family the following morning.

The image shows her wearing white pyjamas walking along Railway Road in the town at 03:31 on Wednesday.

Insp Howard Elvidge said officers were increasingly concerned for her welfare, adding: “I hope the CCTV image triggers someone’s memory and helps us to build a picture of her movements."

Police also released this photo of Ms White and said she now has grey hair

The search for Mrs White involved specialist officers and drones, including the Marine Unit on the River Great Ouse, with officers on foot along the banks, he said.

“Clearly the focus is on finding Mary, and we are keeping an open mind as to her whereabouts," he added.

"Members of the public who, understandably, want to help can do so by checking any doorbell and dashcam cameras and checking any insecure outbuildings.”

Ms White is described as around 5ft (1.5m), has a slim build and shoulder-length grey hair.
