Police are continuing to appeal to the public for sightings of missing 63-year-old Dunedin man Gordon McLean who has not been found overnight.
There are serious concerns for his well-being after he left Wakari Hospital, Taieri Road at approximately 3pm yesterday afternoon.
Overnight Police and LandSAR volunteers have been making enquiries to locate him and a fresh team will begin searching again at 7am this morning in the Dunedin city hill suburbs.
