Police hold concerns for the welfare of missing 41-year-old Shaun Robert Jones.

Shaun was reported missing by a family member who has been unable to contact him.

“Shaun was last seen at the Tennant Creek Hospital on 21 September,” said Senior Sergeant Darrell Kerr.

“It is understood that it is out of character for the missing person to not be in contact regularly with his brother.

“Shaun is described as being 180cm tall, with a heavy build, fair complexion, shaved head and blue eyes. He has distinctive tattoos on his left leg and a blue bird tattooed on either his left or right ear lobe. He walks with limp to the right leg.

Police urge anyone that may have seen Shaun or anyone who has any information about him to call Police on 131 444.
