Today Missing man David CLARK was located in bush in the Marsden Road, Body Town area in Greymouth.
He made phone contact to his family this morning on his mobile phone who directed police and Search & Rescue members to his location. 

Due to confusion as to his own location this took some time and ended with Mr. CLARK being strop lifted out by Coast Wide Helicopters. 

He was handed over to ambulance staff and taken to Greymouth hospital for a checkup. He appeared very fatigued and worn out but otherwise okay. 

Police will wait until he has fully recovered before speaking to him further about his ordeal.
