Officers searching for 93-year-old man who went missing from Lower Earley have located a body this afternoon.

Although formal identification has not yet taken place, Thames Valley Police say they believe this to be Sidney.

The death is being treated as unexplained, but not suspicious, and a file will be prepared for the coroner.

His family have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.

Superintendent Andrew Cranidge, LPA Commander for Bracknell & Wokingham, said: “Our search for Sidney has been ongoing for four days, with volunteers from Berkshire Lowland Search & Rescue and the local community assisting in our search.

“Very sadly, as a result of these searches, a man’s body was located in a garden in Earley this afternoon.

“I would like to thank everyone who has offered their help in this search over the last four days.

“I know that Sidney’s family are extremely grateful to all those who have assisted.”

He added: “This is a tragic conclusion to what has been a widespread search and my thoughts and the thoughts of all of us at Thames Valley Police are with Sidney’s family.

“We would ask, on their behalf, that their privacy is respected at what will be an extremely difficult time for them.”
