A POLICE helicopter was circling in the skies over a Hampshire village last night after officers were called following reports of concern for welfare of a man.
A force helicopter went up over King’s Somborne at about 9.25pm last night while officers tried to find a man in his early to mid 30s.
They added that while there are concerns for the welfare of the man - who is from King's Somborne - they are not considered to be a vulnerable person.
One villager, Keith Hibdige said he was alerted to the drama after hearing the helicopter overhead the Eldon Road area.
He said: “I first noticed this helicopter going round and round. It’s crawling with police right now.”
