A Scots RAF serviceman has disappeared after a night out with friends from his military barracks in East Anglia.

Corrie McKeague, 23, who is based at RAF Honington, was last seen in Brentgovel Street in Bury St Edmunds at around 3.20am on Saturday.

The gunner, from Fife, has not been seen or been in contact with anyone since. From CCTV it is believed he briefly slept in a doorway before getting up and moving away, possibly with the aim of walking home several miles away.

The National Police Air Service helicopter has been deployed to help with searches and police want to hear from anyone who may have seen him since or who may have information about his whereabouts.

Police are also asking dog walkers or anyone who may be out in the countryside around Bury St Edmunds to get in touch if they notice anything unusual.

Mr McKeague is described as white, 5ft 10in tall, of medium build, with short light brown hair. He was wearing a light pink polo shirt and white jeans at the time he was last seen.

Officers are concerned for his welfare and are asking anyone who may have seen Corrie, or anyone who has any information on his whereabouts, to contact the duty sergeant at Bury St Edmunds on 101.
