Officers searching for a North-East man who went missing after watching the Olympics in Athens, say they are continuing to draw a blank.

Melvyn Gamblin travelled to Greece last month to watch the games, but he has not been seen since September 3, the day he was due to fly back to England.

The 37-year-old from Darlington was last seen by hotel staff in Athens, but he never checked-out and he failed to board his EasyJet flight to Luton.

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

Police have notified Interpol who are working with the Greek authorities. Anyone with information is asked to contact Darlington Police on (01325) 467681.
