Police have issued an appeal for the public’s help today (Wednesday) to find a Highbridge mother and her child who have gone missing.
Officers say Rebecca Minnock and her son Ethan have not been seen since yesterday (Tuesday) in the Musgrove Park Hospital area of Taunton.
Rebecca – or Becky as she likes to be known – was due to have attended an appointment in Bristol this morning at 9am but did not turn up.
Police say concern is growing for her welfare and whereabouts and that of her three-year-old son Ethan.
“Becky is described as a white woman, aged 35 years, about 5ft 3ins tall of medium build. She has dark wavy shoulder length hair. It is not known what she was wearing when she went missing,” said a spokesman.
“Ethan is a white boy, three-years-old of small build with blond/fair hair and blue eyes.”
“Becky does not drive and regularly uses public transport so we would urge anyone who uses public transport to keep a lookout for Becky and her son.”
“We would like Becky or anyone who has been contacted by her or has seen her and son Ethan, to contact us, to confirm she is alright.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Somerset Investigations on the force number 101, quoting reference MP2189/15/.
