A desperate search for a missing Padbury man is entering its tenth night as emergency services urge the public to check their surroundings and be vigilant.
Fifty-two-year-old Bradley Hutton has been missing for ten days, with his family and friends having not heard from him since June 9.
WA Police Senior Sergeant Adrian Fuller on Wednesday said police held major concerns for Mr Hutton’s welfare as he has several medical conditions which he requires medicine for.
“He requires daily medication which he has now run out of,” Snr-Sgnt. Fuller said.
“The fact that he’s not getting that medication, we’re very concerned about his well-being.
“He’s not accessing his bank account and other methods used to locate missing people have been unsuccessful.
“Mr Hutton’s movements are pretty routine, the fact he hasn’t contacted family, friends or associates over the past ten days or so is very concerning to police.
“We’re doing everything we can to find out where Mr Hutton has gone.”
Snr-Sgnt. Fuller has urged residents in Perth’s north to check their own backyards and parks in case the 52-year-old was trying to find warmth and shelter.
“With the weather and the rain, there is a possibility Mr Hutton could be seeking shelter, if we can ask residents to check their yards and nearby parks, just be vigilant,” he said.
“We have had the police airwing, mounted police and the Perth bike control come down and assist us to search certain areas that we know Mr Hutton frequents.
“He’s a person that’s very local to the area.
“We have officers trying to identify his movements, speak to his friends and family and other associates that may be able to provide us with other information that will assist us in locating him.
“This information is really important, we encourage any person who has knowledge of his whereabouts to contact police on 131 444.”
Mr Hutton was last seen on MacArthur Avenue in Padbury several days ago.
Police are particularly interested in dashcam footage from cars that drove along Whitford Avenue between Mitchell Freeway and the shopping centre on June 11 between 11am and 5pm.
CCTV of Mr Hutton has also been released, showing him walking around the Padbury area prior to when he went missing in the hopes it may jog someone’s memory.
Mr HUTTON is described as being 150cm tall, with a slim build, long grey hair (thinning on top), and facial hair. It is not known what he was wearing but he generally wears black jeans and t-shirts.
Anyone who sees Mr HUTTON, or has any information relating to his whereabouts, is urged to call police immediately on 131 444.
