POLICE are asking for people to keep a look out for Robert Wilkinson, from Barnoldswick, who has been missing from home since Tuesday last week.

Robert, 44, was last seen at 9pm on November 21 wearing a black ‘Pretty Green’ coat with a poppy on it, blue Adidas trainers with red stripes and a black O’Neil rucksack with blue streaks on it.

Robert is described as being 6ft 2in tall, of a slim build with short dark hair and a dark goatee.

Police say he has links to Barnoldswick and Skipton.

Yesterday (Saturday) Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association were asked by North Yorkshire Police to assist in the search for Robert by carrying out a search of Skipton Woods. The team using its search dogs, Kez and Storm made an extensive search, but was unsuccessful. 

Anyone who sees Robert is asked to ring 999, or with any information which may be useful, to telephone the non-emergency 101 number.
