POLICE have found a 35-year-old man who went missing from a secure unit.

Colin Coakley absconded from Bethlem Hospital in Monks Orchard Road, Beckenham, on February 6, and police launched an appeal to find him.

However, in the last couple of hours the 35-year-old was found in Sussex and is now in police custody.

There were serious concerns regarding his welfare as he is in need of essential medication and his health deteriorates rapidly without it.
