Metropolitan Police are "extremely concerned" for the safety of a south London man who disappeared almost a week ago and fear he has "come to harm".
Detectives are appealing for more information on the whereabouts of Justin Henry, 34, who was reported missing on Monday.
He was last seen in person at his partner's house in Brixton on the evening of Sunday October 15 and later seen on CCTV in Croydon picking up McDonald's at a drive-thru.
"He has not been seen or heard from by his family since that time, and this is out of character," the Met said in an update on Sunday.
He was last seen on CCTV buying food at a McDonald's drive-thru on London Road in Croydon at 9.50pm on Sunday October 15.
"At this time we believe Justin drove from that restaurant to a nearby location in Croydon where his vehicle, a silver Mercedes E Class, remained for approximately two and a half hours," the Met said.
The Mercedes was later found in Kingswood Drive, near Crystal Palace.
The force said: "It is unclear who was driving the vehicle when it arrived at Kingswood Drive due to indistinct CCTV image of the driver, but Justin’s family state that it is not him."
DCI Matt Coop of the Met’s South East CID said: "Based on the available evidence this remains a missing person enquiry, however my concern that Justin has come to harm is, sadly, increasing with every day.
"The investigation team continue to be assisted by officers from Specialist Crime, including forensic specialists. Justin’s family are being supported by specially trained officers.
"We are now appealing to the public for their assistance. I need to hear from anyone who may have seen Justin over the past week.
"We are particularly interested in any information about Justin’s movements after leaving McDonald’s last Sunday night, and I also want to hear from anyone who saw anything suspicious or heard a disturbance.
“If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please call police or to remain anonymous contact the independent charity Crimestoppers.”
Justin's disappearance remains a missing person investigation led by detectives from the Met’s South East BCU. The specialist crime unit has been providing additional support since October 18.
A police investigation continues and there are "a number of active lines of enquiry being progressed", the Met said.
One person has been arrested in connection with this investigation and has been bailed pending further enquiries to a date in January 2024.
