Police believe that an East Yorkshire man missing from home for nearly a fortnight could be in the Keighley area.

A man matching the description of 44-year-old Stephen Wright, from Beverley, was seen at Haworth Youth Hostel on Wednesday afternoon. Humberside Police yesterday urged anyone who may have spotted him to get in touch.

Det Insp Nigel Sawyer said: "Stephen's family is desperately worried about him. It is not like him to disappear like this, and they hope he is safe. They just need to hear that he is okay."

Stephen - who disappeared on October 4 - is described as white, 5ft 7in tall, slim, with shaven hair and a tanned complexion. He was wearing denim jeans and a jacket, a dark coloured T-shirt and trainers.

Anyone with information should phone Humberside Police on 01482 597900.
