Fourth man arrested in connection with Owami Davies disappearance
A fourth man has been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection to the disappearance of 24-year-old student nurse Owami Davies.
Owami was last seen at around midnight in Derby Road, West Croydon on Thursday, July 7.
A 22-year-old man was arrested by officers at an address in Croydon on the evening of August 3.
Three other men have already been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with Owami’s disappearance. They were taken to a South London police station where they all remain in custody.
The Met have released images of Owami on the night she was last seen in a shop and CCTV of her walking in Derby Road.
Owami’s mother, Nicol Davies, said: “There are many friends and family who love and care for Owami and all of them want to see her safe return.
“Owami – if you see this appeal please believe you are not in any trouble, we just want you to come back to us. Please leave a message if you can to let us know you are OK, we are so very worried about you.
“This is such a terrible time for all those who love Owami and I am pleading for anyone who can help find her to contact police. Every day we hope to hear the news that Owami is coming back to us. Your help might make it so.”
In particular, officers are keen to speak to the driver of a white van which was parked in Derby Road.
Owami was in the company of a man and crossed the road just as the van pulled out.
The van driver would have had a good opportunity to see them both clearly and officers are appealing to this possible witness to come forward.
