This is literally round the corner from where I live - I hope his family have answers soon.

There’s quite a lot of waterways not too far from this area, within literally a minute walk from where he was last seen you can access the bridge water canal - which is IMO where he will be found unfortunately. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t see a positive outcome on this one

Unfortunately no news at all at the minute

I’m close by and the general consensus is that he’s completed suicide in the canal - otherwise he’d have been seen on further CCTV images

Sons' desperate pleas after man vanishes four weeks ago

Tony Williamson, who has been battling a chronic illness, hasn't been seen since December

Family have made an emotional appeal.

It states he had a chronic illness and was in constant pain which makes me think he’s probably decided to end his life.

This is local to me too. Very sad if he did decide to end his life. There is a little row of businesses before the tram stop which I would have thought he would have been captured on if he was heading to the canal. Park road is very busy at almost times of the day but if he did decide to go to the canal if he took the path headed towards Altrincham it is very quiet. I used to walk home from work that way and rarely saw anyone. Heading in the other direction towards Sale is much busier.

This is such a coincidence I was thinking of Anthony this morning as a body was found this morning in Charlton water park and I suspected it could have been him.

I’m guessing he entered the water pretty close to where he was last sighted on the CCTV.

RIP Anthony thoughts are with his family - I think they knew this was the outcome from day one
