A police helicopter was used last night in the search for a person missing from Epsom Hospital.
The hospital called the police at 6pm to report that a man who was being treated at the hospital had left the premises.
Officers on the ground and in the air searched the area, and the man was found at an address in Epsom just after 6.30pm.
Epsom and Ewell Police tweeted after the incident: "Missing person has returned to Epsom Hospital so @NPAS_Redhill is heading off back to base, thank you! #InspElkins".
