This is still a case there appears little info on, and although police have been informed, there is no online appeal as yet.

John Winterton went missing in the Wythenshawe, Manchester area sometime between 04 - 06am on Wednesday, August 18, from his sister's house. His dad checked on him at 06.45am and found him gone.

No one has seen or heard from him since.

His credit cards have not been used since Tuesday. His phone last pinged at 06.17am on August 18 in Northern Moor, Wythenshawe.

The family are conducting a search later today, Saturday August 21, from The Cringlewood Social Club, Yewtree Lane, Wythenshawe from around 12 - 12.30pm.

Sale Road is presumably the sister's where they say he was at. His phone last pinged a few minutes away at Northern Moor at 6.17am, so seems he would have left around 6am - 6.14am. Would have been light then, but why?
