An urgent search is underway for a man who has gone missing from his home.

Police are worried for the welfare of Calum Terras who went missing from Blackpool but is thought could be in Manchester.

Officers say he is fond of Manchester and Liverpool, as well as Cheshire, particularly Wilmslow.

The 27-year-old man was last seen at his home address on Fleet Street by a family member on Monday at 6.55am.

He left the house after saying he was going to get a haircut at Abingdon Street Market and has not been seen or heard from since.

Sgt Chris Hardy, from Blackpool Police, said: “We are very concerned about the welfare of Mr Terras and urge him, or anyone who has seen him to contact us as soon as possible.”

Mr Terras is described as white, 5ft 6ins, medium build with collar length dark brown hair, facial hair and wearing glasses. He was last seen wearing a three-quarter length military jacket and white trainers. He is known to enjoy camping and may have links to Cumbria.

His father lives in Fife, so there is also a possibility that he could have travelled to that area.

Anybody with information can contact police on 101 quoting log number 578 of January 5 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
