Detective Sergeant Julie Morrow, of the Central West Missing Person Unit, said: “This is totally out of character for Nathan and both his family and officers are extremely concerned for his welfare. If anyone has any information, or saw Nathan, please contact police.

“Any small bit of information could be vital and may save hours of police work by directing officers to where Nathan was last seen.

“Lastly my appeal is to Nathan. If you are well then please contact your family who are so very worried about you, or contact officers. You are not in any trouble and we just want to know you are OK.”

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or Tweet @MetCC quoting 23MIS002577
