Police hold grave concerns for a Newcastle man, missing from an aged care home for more than 24-hours.
60-year-old Peter O’Donnell left the facility on John Parade, Merewether, between 6 and 8am on Thursday.
His family says his disappearance is out of character, and that he requires regular medical attention.
Mr O’Donnell is described as 163-centimetres tall, of thin build, with dark grey hair.
He has tattoos on his arms.
I would like to ask the locals of Merewether and the surrounding towns, to keep their eyes peeled as they drive, walk or ride home tonight. My Uncle Peter is a very kind and caring man and today needs an extended helping hand from the public , so if you have seen My Uncle Peter please contact the police.
Yours Sincerely
From Jamie O’Donnell .
“To Uncle Pete, I can’t wait to hear from you. lots of love Jamie lee .xoxo
