By Bristol24/7  Monday Jan 23, 2017

It’s more than a week since 24-year-old Deakon Wilkins went missing from Motion nightclub in St Phillips.

Deakon, from Weston-super-Mare, was last seen at the club in the early hours of Saturday, January 14.

Police have now released CCTV of him which shows the clothing he was wearing when he went missing.

He’s described as white, of medium build, approximately 5ft 10ins tall, with very short ginger hair and was clean shaven. He was wearing a red fitted jumper, black smart blazer, dark jeans and red trainers.

Inspector Jason Shears said: “We’re using a significant number of resources in our search for Deakon and have already issued a number of photographs as part of our appeal for help in finding him.

“We now hope the CCTV image showing the clothes he was wearing when he was last seen might jog someone’s memory.

“If you were in Motion or the surrounding area last Friday night or Saturday morning and remember seeing someone dressed in a red fitted jumper, black blazer, dark jeans and red trainers then please, I urge you to get in touch.

“Deakon’s disappearance is out of character and we’re increasingly concerned for his welfare.”

Anyone who sees Deakon is asked to call 999 and quote reference 5217012724.
