AN URGENT search has been launched for a missing mum who vanished two weeks ago as new CCTV footage is revealed.
Mary White disappeared from her home at Downham Market in Norfolk on Tuesday, September 24.
The 73-year-old was last seen at around 10pm.
She was reported missing the next morning after her house in Nelson Avenue was found empty.
CCTV footage revealed Ms White walked along Railway Road at 3.30am on Wednesday.
She was wearing white pyjamas and police say there has been no sign of her since despite specialist search teams operating for two weeks.
Her daughter shared a heartbreaking appeal on Facebook which read: “Please anyone in the Downham Market area or near keep a eye out for my mum Mary White she has gone missing either last night or early hours of this morning, she will probably be confused, as far as we know she is still in her pyjamas and slippers.
“Police are out looking so please any sightings or anything contact them or me.”
Ms White is described as around 5ft tall and of slim build, with shoulder-length grey hair.
Ch Insp Chris Banks said: “We do have to be open to all possibilities and our focus remains on finding Mary.
“Clearly this is a distressing time for her family and we continue to keep them updated.
“Anyone who has seen Ms White or has any information should call Norfolk Police on 101, quoting ref 48 of 25 September 2024.”
A Norfolk Police spokesperson said: “Officers are continuing their inquiries to locate missing Downham Market woman Mary White.
“Mary was last seen at her home address in Nelson Avenue at around 10pm on Tuesday 24 September 2024.
“She was reported missing by family the following morning when it was discovered she was no longer in the house.

“These specialist searches are now largely complete.
“Officers will continue regular searches in the area and are also carrying out ongoing inquiries.”
