Police appeal for missing Hove woman

Kathleen Phelps was reported missing on Friday (June 30) at 8.30pm after her son went to visit her at her York Road flat.

Police said he believes the 65-year-old may have left the previous evening and hasn't been seen since.

She called in sick to work on Thursday (June 29), which is the last time anyone heard from her, officers said.

PC Henry Cox said: "This is out of character for Kathleen as she has never gone missing before.

"She is white and slim with short, grey hair but it is unknown what she was wearing when she left."

Anyone who has seen her is asked to contact police online with the reference 1468 of 30/06.
