Thanks to the community’s response to previous appeals, we now know that Ted was last seen on CCTV at approximately 2.10am outside the Wimpy at Milford, heading towards Stafford.
The last sighting of a Ted by a witness was a 3.30am-3.40am on Milford Road, between School Lane and the Wimpy at Milford. This suggests that he may have been heading back towards Walton-on-the-Hill, Hillcroft Park, Weeping Cross area.
