Avon and Somerset Police have released two new CCTV pictures in connection with their ongoing investigation into Jack O'Sullivan from Bristol, who has been missing since the start of March.

The 23-year-old was last seen in the Hotwells area of Bristol on Saturday 2 March as he began making his way home from a night out with friends.

His last confirmed sighting was at 3.13am at the junction of Brunel Lock Way and Brunel Way, Bristol - however, there are now two further sightings.

Police say the images show someone walking over Plimsol Bridge at around 3.25am, heading back in the direction of Bristol city centre.

The second clip shows someone walking along the Bennett Way slip road on the northern side of the river at around 3.38am.

Senior Investigating Officer DI Jason Chidgey said: "This has been an incredibly difficult time for Jack O'Sullivan's family as we approach two months since he was last seen, and we continue to provide them with support and keep them fully updated on the investigation into his disappearance.

"Since he was reported as missing, a dedicated team of officers have carried out extensive land and river searches, trawled CCTV and carried out other enquiries.

"This investigation has sought support from a number of specialist units, including the dog and mounted section, specialist dive teams who used sonar technology as part of their searches, the National Police Air Service and a specialist review team. We have also received support from Investigations, Intelligence, Data Analysis, Neighbourhood Policing teams and Communications.

"Our officers have reviewed footage from 31 different sources, including private and local authority CCTV, dashcam and doorbell cameras. To ensure we’ve been as comprehensive in our approach as possible, we’ve recently carried out a re-review of more than 100 hours of CCTV."

Jack is white, approximately 5ft 10ins, of slim build, with short, brown hair.

He was last seen wearing a green/brown quilted Barbour jacket, a beige woollen jumper, navy chinos, and brown shoes with a white sole.

Anyone who was walking, driving or in the area of Brunel Way, Brunel Lock Road, Junction Swing Bridge, Plimsol Swing Bridge or the Portway anytime between 2.45am and 4am on Saturday 2 March is urged to come forward.

Anyone who has any CCTV, dashcam, doorbell or mobile phone footage is asked to review it and contact Avon and Somerset Police if you see anything remotely suspicious or something which could be a person walking.

If you were in the area and saw anything, please call 101 and quote reference 5224055172.
