MISSING DJ DEREK LAST SEEN BEING CHASED FROM PUB

The family of the Bristol DJ have received new information

A new lead has emerged in the search for DJ Derek, who went missing in July.

Jennifer Griffiths, the DJ’s great niece, told Bristol 24/7 that the family received information that a man matching Derek’s description was seen being chased out of a pub in Thornbury after an “altercation about a drink” on 11 July.

She said: "I've spoken to the witness personally and he's 100 per cent sure it's Derek.

"This could be the biggest lead yet."

In a statement, Avon and Somerset Police said that the investigation into DJ Derek’s whereabouts was continuing. 

"We have recently gone back into his flat as part of our ongoing enquiries.

"This investigation remains live and we would still appeal for anyone who might have any information as to Derek's whereabouts to contact us immediately.

"Any information, regardless of how insignificant you think it might be, could be crucial to this investigation."
