NEWCASTLE MAN REPORTED MISSING IN NORTHERN QUEENSLAND
CCTV images have been released of a Newcastle man, reported missing in northern Queensland earlier this week.
22-year-old Jayden Penno-Tompsett was reported missing from the Charters Towers area on January 3.
He is described as Caucasian in appearance, 175cms tall with mousey brown hair, and was last seen wearing a black singlet, navy blue board shorts, a black cap and black and red thongs.
Concerns are held for Jayden’s welfare as he has not made any contact with family, but police believe it’s possible he is travelling as part of his original plans and may not be aware that he has been reported missing.
Police have released images of Mr Penno-Tompsett at a roadhouse on Thompson Street in Charters Towers in the early hours of December 31, and are urging property owners in the Towers Hill area to check their properties.
Anyone who may have been travelling in the central or north Queensland area on New Year’s Eve, and believe they may have seen Mr Penno-Tompsett, are also urged to contact police.
