A PSNI spokesperson said: “We are appealing to anyone with information in respect of Jamie’s whereabouts to contact us on 101 or via psni.police/report, quoting serial 762 of 11/07/24.

“If you have used public transport today, or drive a taxi – have you seen Jamie? He may also have been walking along rural roads.

“We would ask the local community to check their outbuildings, sheds and any derelict buildings that may be accessible, if it is safe to do so. Jamie could also be camping in the area.”
