Fears missing dog walker has been swept awaypublished at 13:07 Greenwich Mean Time

A major search is under way for a man in his 70s who went missing in the River Conwy near Trefriw, Conwy county, yesterday afternoon, North Wales Police says.

He has short white hair, is 6ft tall, and is wearing a black and red bobble hat, dark waterproof trousers and brown walking boots. He is also wearing a red Berghaus waterproof jacket and was accompanied by his dog, a black and white collie, with a black lead and a black regatta coat.

He had been walking with his wife near Gower Road, an area affected by significant floodwater.

“Floodwater poses significant risks, often hiding dangers and being deeper than it appears. I would urge members of the public to always avoid walking or driving through floodwater—it’s never worth the risk,” says Ch Insp Simon Kneale.
