I just want my gorgeous boy to get in touch says mother of missing man
Nicola Jobling and her daughter Georgie hug each other while walking over the bridge where Jordan Sullivan (below) was last seen.
The mother of a missing York teenager who was last seen stripping naked and running towards a river has begged her “gorgeous boy” to get in touch as fears continue to grow.
Nicola Jobling made the emotional plea yesterday morning in a fresh appeal to trace 19-year-old Jordan Sullivan, a week after he was last seen at 9.30am near the river in Naburn.
Speaking near the scene where Mr Sullivan was last sighted, she said: “I am desperately begging for you, my gorgeous, gorgeous boy Jord, to get in touch and please let me know you are safe.
“If there is an issue, you know we can talk about anything and everything. There is nothing that cannot be sorted. I love you and want you to come home to your family.
“I am appealing, as a mum, to anyone and everyone to come forward, if you have any information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, about where Jordan is now.
“If you have seen Jordan in this area on other occasions, please contact the police. It’s not an area I was aware he knew or visited.”
Search teams and family members have continued to scour the city following the teenager’s mysterious disappearance.
However, police have scaled back the hunt and underwater searches of the River Ouse, which were carried out over four days by a team of divers from West Yorkshire Police concluded on Friday.
Officers have maintained they are keeping an “open mind” over the teenager’s fate.
Speaking to the Yorkshire Post last week, the police officer leading the search, Inspector Jo Brooksbank, said: “We have been conducting house-to-house inquiries in the locality to see if there is any information that might produce any further lines of inquiry that we can follow. We have no information to suggest why he was in a state of undress.
“We are keeping an open mind as to what might have happened to Jordan. We are hoping there will be some developments fairly quickly.”
Mr Sullivan is white, around 5ft 9in, with a slim build and short dark hair.
He also has a tattoo of a crucifix running between his shoulder blades.
Anyone with information is being urged to contact North Yorkshire Police on 101.
