New photos of Mr O'Sullivan have been released as police continue to search for the 22-year-old

New photos have been released of a 22-year-old man who has been missing for more than two weeks.

Jack O'Sullivan was last seen at 03:15 GMT in the area of Brunel Lock Road and Brunel Way in Bristol on 2 March.

Avon and Somerset Police Det Insp Jason Chidgey said it was a "extremely distressing time" for Mr O'Sullivan's loved ones.

Officers want to speak to anyone who was driving on the Cumberland Basin around the time of his last sighting.

Det Insp Chidgey said: "We're continuing to carry out urgent enquiries to establish what happened to him.

"We're keen for the public to focus on the time of the last confirmed sighting.

"We still want to speak to anyone driving on the Cumberland Basin around this time, as well as anyone driving outbound towards Long Ashton, as they may have dashcam footage which could help us."

Mr O'Sullivan's family have pleaded for information, saying they need to know where their son has gone "for their sanity".

He had attended a birthday party in the Hotwells area the night he went missing and had attempted to call a friend at 3:24 GMT.

His friend called back 10 minutes later and only managed to say "hello" before the line went dead.

Mr O'Sullivan's phone remained active on the Find My Friends app up until 06:44 GMT.

Det Insp Chidgey added that a previous police CCTV appeal focussing on a person on Hotwell Road at around 5.40 GMT on 2 March has established they were not Mr O'Sullivan.

"We're in daily contact with Jack's family to keep them updated on the progress of our investigation and to ensure they have the help and support they need.

"To date we've carried out an extensive CCTV trawl as well as searches of the local area, including the deployment of our specialist dive team to search the river Avon," Det Insp Chidgey said.

Mr O'Sullivan is described as white, around 5ft 10ins, of slim build, with short brown hair.

He was wearing a quilted green/brown Barbour jacket over a beige woollen jumper, with navy chinos and brown leather trainers with white soles.
