UK police last week launched an appeal to help find João Nobrega, who had last been seen on the morning of Sunday, 3 April, when he left his home address in Stone Crescent for his daily walk.

A Metropolitan Police spokesperson told The Portugal News Mr. Nóbrega, who speaks little English, was found “over the weekend” after being missing for around a week.

His disappearance had worried his family, friends and local authorities as it was said to be “completely out of character”.

The Met did not provide any details regarding the circumstances surrounding the Portuguese man’s absence, but said he is “fine.”
