A FRESH appeal has been made to trace a Wrexham man who went missing five years ago.

Police have appealed for information to help trace David Clwyd Davies, 69, of Acrefair, who was last seen on April 3, 2013.

North Wales Police were alerted by a concerned neighbour after Mr Davies to turn up for an appointment that day.

Officers have renewed their appeal to the public for help with any information or sightings of the pensioner.

Next week national charity Missing People will be also circulating a poster in The Big Issue magazine, a street newspaper concerned with homelessness in an attempt to trace Mr Davies.

Mr Davies is described as 5ft 11ins tall and of heavy build with a thick beard. He was last seen wearing jeans, a fleece top and woolly hat and is well known in the community.

Sgt Gareth Roberts at Rhos Police Station said; “It is five years since Mr Davies went missing. We occasionally get reports of sightings around the country, but these come to nothing.

“Although we have no new information, the fifth anniversary of his disappearance is an opportunity to raise public awareness once again.”

Anyone with any information should contact North Wales Police on 101 or alternatively Crimestoppers on 0800 555111, quoting reference iTrace 9438
