Police find missing sex offender

Police have found a sex offender who went missing during a visit to a farm in Bristol.

Local officers found Tamer Mahmoud in the early hours of Wednesday and returned him into care.

Tamer Mahmoud is considered a high risk because he was originally held under the Mental Health Act and is a registered sex offender.

The 26-year-old was reported missing at 1100 BST on Tuesday during a supervised trip to the farm.
