"Enquiries are ongoing and police are investigating all possible sightings."

Peter is described as white, 6ft 1in tall, of muscular/athletic build, unshaven, with greying brown hair.

However, police believe he may be sleeping rough so his appearance may be more dishevelled than in pictures.

He was last seen wearing a blue hoodie underneath a blue waist length jacket, loose grey cotton jogging bottoms, and blue Nike trainers.
