POLICE have issued an urgent appeal over the whereabouts of high-risk missing person Jason Hughes (27).
On Thursday morning, the PSNI said they were continuing to search for him as he has not been seen since Friday, April 26.
A police spokesperson said: “Jason has links to both the Belfast and Craigavon areas, but we believe he could be anywhere in Northern Ireland.
“This morning, we are asking people who own buildings in Belfast City Centre, especially derelict ones and those that are also boarded up, to check them.”
They added: “We are especially keen that owners of buildings in the North Street, York Gate, Lower Garfield Street and James Street South areas check for signs that Jason may be there.
“We are also continuing to appeal to the public to please look at the image of Jason and let us know if you recognise him, or have seen him. Jason is described as being approximately 5ft 4 inches tall, of slim build, with short fair/ blond hair and blue eyes.”
