“Twenty-one-year old Adam Thomas remains missing from home and we would appeal for anyone with information on his whereabouts to contact Cleveland Police.”

Officers say they are very concerned for Adam’s welfare, and are asking anyone who may have seen him, or may know of his whereabouts, to contact them urgently.

They first appealed for help to trace him on Sunday and repeated the call for help earlier today.

Adam is described as a white male, around 5ft 9in-tall, of slim build with brown hair which is now short compared to the length shown in this photograph.

It is not known what Adam clothes was wearing when he went missing, but officers believe that he was wearing red shoes.

Anyone with information regarding Adam’s whereabouts is asked to contact Cleveland Police on 101, quoting event number 141823.
