OFFICERS searching for a North-East man who went missing after seeing the Olympics, in Athens, are continuing to draw a blank.

Melvyn Gamblin, who went to Greece last month, has not been seen since September 3, the day he was due to return.

The 37-year-old, from Darlington, was last seen by hotel staff in Athens, but he did not check out and failed to board his easyJet flight to Luton.

His family say his disappearance is out of character and are desperate for news.

Anyone with information is asked to call Darlington police on (01325) 467681.
