COPS are urgently hunting for an “at risk” man who’s fled a mental health facility in London.
Philip Theophilou, 54, was last seen at Homertown on Sunday.
Met Police are now asking for the public’s help to find him, but urging them not to approach him.
The force said Theophilou does not have access to his medication and they worry “the risk he may pose without it”.
Officers understand that the 54-year-old travelled to the Green Park area at about 11.30am on Sunday, after leaving a mental health facility in east London.
They said Theophilou was expected to return to Homertown but was yet to.
The force said in a statement: “The clothing he was wearing when he went missing was a grey jumper, blue jeans, black jacket and black jumper [as shown in picture].
“Officers and medical professionals are concerned at his lack of access to medication and the risk he may pose without it.”
