A detective inspector says the investigation into the disappearance of a man in Lancaster more than five months ago is 'continuing'.
Det Insp Adie Knowles of Lancaster Police has renewed an appeal for information to help find Daniel Hives, who disappeared on Saturday December 10 2022.
Daniel, 29, was last seen after leaving an address in City View, Sidings Close, Lancaster, close to the River Lune.
“Despite an extensive investigation and search, we do not know the whereabouts of Daniel," said Det Insp Knowles.
“It is now six months since he was last seen and his family and friends are rightly very concerned about him.
“We have carried out an extensive search of the area over the last few months and conducted an investigation in our attempts to find Daniel.
“That investigation is continuing, and we renew our appeal for anyone with information about Daniel’s disappearance to contact us.
“We ask again for anyone who was in the area of Sidings Close around 9.30pm on December 10, 2022, to come forward.
“Do you have dashcam footage from the area around the time of Daniel going missing?”
Lancashire Police said they have searched the river and surrounding area extensively since Mr Hives went missing.
The Lancashire Police Dogs unit, the Drone Team and the North West Underwater Search and Marine Unit, have been supported by Lancaster Area Search and Rescue, the National Police Air Service and search dogs from Lancashire Fire and Rescue, in the search.
In addition, the Chorley-based Beneath the Surface volunteer underwater diving team, who help families look for missing loved ones using sonar technology and scuba diving skills, have also searched the Lune and found no trace of Daniel.
Other searches around Lancaster have been organised by friends and family, who most recently gathered at the Millennium Bridge on March 29 to mark Mr Hives' 29th birthday.
Daniel also recently featured on the Channel 5 TV show 'Vanished'.
The dad-of-one is originally from Coventry, then moved to Preston about eight years ago, and was living in Lancaster at the time of his disappearance,
He is 6ft tall, of slim build, with short brown hair. The night he went missing, he was wearing a blue Hugo Boss tracksuit and black trainers.
Anyone with information about Daniel’s disappearance, please contact 101 – quoting log 0250 of December 12.
