The heartbroken family of a "happy-go-lucky" dad-of-four have paid tribute after his body was found on a riverbank one month after he went missing.
Karl Pyle, 32, went missing following an argument with a relative in Ryton, Gateshead on March 6. His dad Kevin had spent the following days combing the banks of the River Tyne in Newburn, Newcastle upon Tyne.
As reported by Chronicle Live, taxi driver Kevin believed his son was most likely walking home to his home in the city, over the bridge at Newburn.
