Concerns Grow For Missing Brighton Man, Paul Coulter


Police are growing increasingly concerned for the welfare of 59-year-old Paul Coulter, who was reported missing on Thursday 27 April after failing to show up for work. However, it is believed that Paul has been missing for several days before that, with his last sighting being in Edward Street, Brighton, on Tuesday 18 April.

Described as a white male, 5’ 9” tall, and of slim build with thinning black hair, Paul often wears a black jacket and either tracksuit bottoms or combat work trousers. He is known to ride a black mountain bike, which has also not been located.

Public Protection Detective Chief Inspector Andy Harbour said that it was unusual for Paul not to have contact with anyone for such a prolonged period, and they are very concerned about his safety. The police are conducting numerous investigations to trace Paul’s movements over the last few weeks, and they are urging anyone who may have seen him since April 18 to contact them immediately.

Police are asking for the public’s help and have launched an appeal to assist them in finding Paul. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is urged to contact the police by calling 101 and quoting “Operation Farrar.” In an emergency situation, dial 999.
