CCTV footage, taken in the early hours of Friday, shows missing Skipton man Rory Johnson-Hatfield in the City Mills area of York.

His family have positively identified the images, captured at 12.47am on Friday, as Rory, say police.

The 29-year-old went missing on a night out in the city. Police are following all lines of inquiry and the Yorkshire and Humber Regional Underwater Search Team based at Humberside Police have today continued underwater searches in the Ouse.

Police are urging anyone who recalls seeing Rory or someone matching his description in York on Thursday evening or Friday to contact them.

Rory worked at Brody’s in Sheep Street, Skipton, where colleagues face an anguished wait for his return.

Co-owner Jane Hurst said: "Rory is a really super man and well-loved by us all. He is extremely good with the customers and they really like him – in many ways, he is Brody's.

“Obviously, we are still very hopeful he will turn up safe and well."

Police have been searching without success for Rory since he left the York Central Travelodge in Piccadilly just after midnight last Friday.

Anyone who recalls seeing Rory or someone matching his description in York on Thursday evening or Friday is asked to phone police on 101 without delay, quoting reference 1215020714
