Police are continuing to investigate the whereabouts of Latrobe man Andrew John Jarman.

35 year old Mr Jarman failed to return home after going for a bicycle ride on Sunday 19 August 2012 in the Latrobe area.

Police and Mr Jarman’s family are concerned for his welfare.

Mr Jarman is 180 cm tall and of medium build. He has short dark hair with a moustache and beard with several days’ growth. He has brown eyes and a ruddy complexion.

He is believed to be wearing a white top with a red/white/blue jumper, dark blue pants and a cap with the letter “b” on it. He was riding a white “Cyclops” mountain bike and was wearing a red/black “Met” brand bicycle helmet.

Today police continued to search the Warrawee Reserve area.  Police also utilised the Westpac Police Rescue Helicopter in searching the area, as well as members of the State Emergency Service.

To date, neither Mr. Jarman or his bicycle has been located.

The search is being scaled down at present to where police are following up normal lines of enquiry, including reports from members of the public as they are made.

Tasmania Police are still requesting that any member of the public who may have any information that relates to the possible whereabouts of Mr. Jarman or his bicycle, contacts them on 131444.
