Missing Yorkshire Dales walker turns up at press conference
2020-09-09
[BBC] An 80-year-old hiker who went missing for three days in the Yorkshire Dales has spoken at a press conference arranged in a bid to track him down.

Harry Harvey spent three nights wild camping after becoming separated from a walking group between Gunnerside and Tan Hill, North Yorkshire, on Saturday.

A major search took place including police, the RAF and rescue dogs.

He was spotted by a wildlife photographer on Tuesday morning, who saw him waving at her near Keld.

Mr Harvey was about six miles (10km) from where he was last seen.

He was then taken by Land Rover to the nearby Tan Hill Inn, where he was reunited with family and friends at the press conference.

#2  Reading just the headline I assumed that was the brand name of a mobility assist device for Biden and an aide brought it to him from the basement.

Tough old bird. Hope to have his stamina and drive when I'm 80.
