Coledale man missing for over decade

AS part of this year’s Missing Persons Week, police are renewing their appeal to locate a man who went missing from Coledale more than 11 years ago.

Robert Neville, also known as Bobby, was 30-years-old when he returned to his family home in Coledale on September 29 2008 after a visit to Western Australia.

The following morning (September 30 2008), he left the house to go for a walk but never returned.
