POLICE are still concerned over the whereabouts of a man who has been missing for two weeks.

Trevor Farthing, 52, was last seen on Marshalls Cross Road at 9.30am on Wednesday, June 21.

Officers are making extensive efforts to find him and have issued two appeals asking for the public's help, with Trevor's family also issuing a statement pleading for his safe return.

Last week Detective Sgt Jennie Beck said the investigation team was keen to trace one woman in particular who may have met Trevor three days before he went missing on Sunday, June 18 in the Bradley Road area of Newton-le-Willows, near the Sankey Canal and is believed to have taken him home as she was concerned about him.

Speaking on behalf of the family, Trevor’s partner Marie, said: "Trevor, we are all really worried about you. We miss you and we love you. Please make contact with the police so that we know that you are safe."

Trevor is described as white, 5ft 7 in tall, medium build and with a shaved head and blue eyes. He has a tattoo of a scorpion on the top of his left arm and a tattoo of a union jack on his right arm. When he was last seen Trevor was wearing a brown/khaki t-shirt and blue denim jeans.

Trevor is known to regularly visit the canal near the Bradlegh Road area of Newton.

Anyone with any information is asked to call officers on 101 quoting reference MP-20170627-0823.
