Man missing after telling dad it was a 'nice day to go to Southport'

The search for a much-loved family man continues but the most recent confirmed CCTV of him is nearly two weeks old.

The probe into missing south Liverpool man Matthew Dillon has shifted counties with North Yorkshire Police leading on the investigation. 46-year-old Matthew was last seen leaving his home address in Armitage Gardens, Mossley Hill on Monday, January 2.

As he left the house his dad asked him where he was going - to which he replied "it's a nice day, I might go to Southport". Matthew's last contact with his family was later the same day in a WhatsApp message. The popular man told his dad he would be back at 10.30pm if his bus, the 80A, was on time.
