Searches are taking place in a river for a man who has been missing since last weekend.

Julian De Bono, 63, was last seen on Yarmouth Road in Ipswich, at about 01:45 GMT on Sunday, heading towards London Road.

Members of Suffolk Lowland Search and Rescue (Sulsar) have been searching the River Gipping for him.

Suffolk Police is appealing for CCTV and dashcam footage from the area, which may aid their investigation.

Mr De Bono is about 6ft 1in (1.85m) tall and of slim build. He has a receding hairline, with a trimmed grey and black beard.

He was wearing a white, partially see-through shirt, with red trousers and high-shine black shoes, police said.
