Police are continuing to appeal for urgent public assistance to locate a man missing from Townsville since Christmas Day.
36-year-old Allan Prior was last seen leaving an address on Echlin Street in West End on foot at approximately 12.30pm on December 25.
Reports of a person matching Allan’s description indicate he may have been near the Sturt Street Cutting in Townsville City at approximately 7.30pm that evening.
Police went there but were unable to locate him, or any person at the location.
Investigators have conducted a number of enquiries which indicate Allan has not used his bank account or phone since he disappeared.
Police and family hold serious concerns for his welfare.
He may have travelled within the Townsville, Cairns, Mt Isa or Charters Towers areas and investigators ask anyone in those areas who may have seen him to contact police.
He is described as First Nations, approximately 173cm tall, with a large build, short black hair, brown eyes and a short black beard.
Police are appealing to Allan, or anyone with information regarding his whereabouts, to immediately come forward.
