Police are appealing for information to trace a man who has been missing for four days.

Ashley Wells, 26, was last seen leaving his home in Gabalfa around 8.45pm on Sunday, January 5.

A spokesman for South Wales Police said: “Officers have checked CCTV footage from cameras near his home but it is not known which direction he travelled in and where he has been since Sunday.”

When he was last seen, Mr Wells was wearing dark Criminal Damage branded jeans, khaki brown canvass shoes and a bulky green coat with a big fur-lined hood.

South Wales Police are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen him since that evening and officers say they have “increasing concern” for his welfare.

He is known to have contacts in the Gwent area and visits Newport regularly.

Anyone with information that may help to locate him should contact police on 101 quoting occurrence number 62140005137.
