POLICE have renewed their appeal for information about a Co Fermanagh man who has been missing for four years.

Peter Bartlett (82), who is from the Belleek area, was reported missing by his family in 2018.

A police spokesman said the disappearance of Mr Bartlett, who was 79 at the time, had been "understandably tough for his family and friends".

"We believe that Peter boarded a ferry from Rosslare in the Republic of Ireland to Cherbourg in France on the 22nd May 2018 and was due to check into a campsite, Ar Kleguer in St Pol de Leon in France, to stay in a campervan he had previously left there," he said.

"However, there were no further sightings of him after this.

"His family then registered him as a missing person and there have been no sightings of him since his disappearance.

"Peter’s family have also released new photographs of him in an attempt to jog the memory of anyone who may have saw or spoke with him since his disappearance in 2018.

"He is described as being approximately 5ft 8in in height, of stocky build with blue eyes and grey hair.

"We are still following a number of lines of enquiry, including enquiries with authorities in France, in an attempt to locate Mr Bartlett."

Anyone with information is asked to contact police on the non-emergency number 101, quoting reference 948 25/07/18.
