West Mercia Police have issued a fresh appeal to the public to help trace a man they would like to speak to in connection with an unidentified man found in Hereford in November last year, who has yet to be identified.

The vulnerable man, who is possibly called Roger, has no memory of who he is or where had come from and is currently being cared for in a residential home in Hereford.

A member of the public recently come forward with new information. On Saturday, November 7th, 2015 between 4:20pm and 4:30pm, they had come across Roger and another man in Hereford bus station car park in Commercial Road in Hereford. The member of public assisted with walking Roger and the unknown man to Hereford County Hospital.

As they approached KFC on Stonebow Road, an ambulance was passing by which they flagged down.

The man with Roger is described as white, in his 40s, of a slim build, approximately 5ft 8ins in height with dark wavy hair and glasses. He appeared to be wearing a jacket with long sleeves, combat style trousers and black boots.

Sarah Bennett of West Mercia Police said; “We are appealing locally, nationally and internationally to anyone who can help us trace the man who was seen with Roger. He may have vital information that can help us piece together where Roger had been prior to him being found.

“Any information, little as it may be, could be the key to unlocking this mystery.

‘This is an unusual situation and we are desperately hoping that we can reunite Roger with his family, wherever they may be. We will also be focusing our appeal on social media with the hash-tag ’#RogersLostIdentity’, so please share and re-tweets to spread the word."

Roger is currently in the care of Herefordshire Council and is safe and well.

Despite numerous new lines of enquiry following our previous public appeals, West Mercia Police have yet to identify Roger and enquiries are ongoing to establish if he has been reported missing by family or friends nationally or internationally.

Police are keen to speak to the man who was with Roger on the day he found, as he may be able to assist piecing together Roger’s previous movements. Anyone who believes they may have information,is urged to call West Mercia Police on 101 quoting incident number 309s of 8 November 2015.
