A man’s body has sadly been discovered during searches for two missing people.
Officers were called at around 12.30pm yesterday, 26 July, to reports of a body being found on a beach in Aberystwyth.
The man has now been identified as Connor Parfitt, one of the men who we circulated as missing from Pwllheli last week.
Connor’s family and the coroner have been informed.
Sadly, Simon Wilson has not yet been found, and officers are continuing to support his family.
Chief Inspector Stephen Pawson said: “My thoughts remain with both Connor and Simon’s family at this incredibly difficult time.
“This is not the outcome any of us had hoped for, including the teams involved in the searches.
“Thank you to partner agencies, volunteers and members of the public who assisted in our searches over the last six days.
“We continue to appeal for any information or sightings of Simon to contact us quoting reference O120829.”
