A man’s body has been found in Cookstown, County Tyrone, amid the search for a 21-year-old missing since New Year’s Day.
Police said formal identification of the body has not taken place but the family of Taylor Stewart has been informed.
Mr Stewart was last seen in the Church Heights area at around 5.30am on Thursday January 1.
The search saw police work with partners in the Community Rescue Service, Search & Rescue Dog Association Ireland North and Lough Neagh Search and Rescue.
PSNI Superintendent Peter Stevenson previously described search efforts as “complex” and having covered “a lot of ground”, adding there has been an “extensive” police presence in the town over the last few days.
Mr Stewart’s grandfather Mitchell Crooks said the whole family was “so worried about him, especially with the weather being so bad over the last few days”.
