AN appeal has been launched to find a 43-year-old man who went missing over a week ago.

Matthew Tregidden was last seen in Chepstow on Monday, December 4, and police fear he could have been sleeping rough during the recent freezing weather.

A Gwent Police spokesperson said: “As the weather turns colder officers are growing increasingly concerned for missing 43-year-old Matthew Tregidden.

“Matthew was last seen on December 4 in the Chepstow area, but also has connections to Bristol and across South Wales.

“If anyone has any information about his whereabouts, please call 101 quoting log 98 of 08/12/17.”
