It’s hard to believe but it is now almost nine years since Ian Grey from Bunnaloo East went missing.
Ian hopped into his utility one morning and drove away from his home.
According to police there have been very few reported sightings of him since.
Anyone with information is urged to call CrimeStoppers on 1800 333 000.

Last Friday’s Ride and Scoot to School Day saw a large number of students involved in the activities.
While the younger children undertook activities under the COLA in the school grounds the seniors took a journey throughout the town, and if their actions were any indication, they are safe on the roads.
A group was seen travelling up Lawrence St towards the railway line before giving clear signals of their intention of turning right into Livingstone St.
