POLICE who are trying to trace missing Evesham man Lee Horton have released new pictures as part of their search appeal.
The 36-year-old has not been in touch with his family since last Tuesday (March 11).
Lee has not arrived home from a visit to Bristol despite telling his family he’d be catching a train home. He was reported missing the next day, (last Wednesday, March 12(.
Officers are following up all lines of enquiry and have also been carrying out painstaking CCTV enquiries to track Lee’s movements. So far the latest confirmed sighting is in Broadmead, just after 1pm on March 11.
Police have also been distributing leaflets to people in the city centre.
Enquiries have established that Lee unsuccessfully attempted to book a hotel on Tuesday morning, visited several retail outlets in the Broadmead area and at one point got on and straight off a bus.
Family’s concerns
Lee’s worried family travelled to Bristol and met with senior investigating officers on Friday. They say his visit to Bristol is not unusual, as he likes to visit new places, but that it’s out of character for him not to be in contact.
Officers are keen to hear from anyone with information which could help to find him.
Lee is 5ft 11ins tall and white with short dark brown hair and a beard and a distinguishing birth mark on his right arm. He was wearing a blue jacket, dark-coloured jeans and was carrying a large black rucksack with red tags on it.
Police plea
Police have urged people in Bristol and the surrounding areas to check dashcam, CCTV and any other footage for sightings.
Police also want to hear from anyone who finds a large black rucksack with red tags
It is suggested residents check any outbuildings in case he sought shelter.
Anone who sees Lee or knows where he is now should call Avon and Somerset Police on 999, or ring 101.
