Where’s Justin? Family Plea After Man Vanishes in Croydon
Justin Henry, 34, was last spotted on Sunday, 15 October, at 9.50pm buying food at a McDonald’s drive-thru on London Road, Croydon. He had been at his partner’s Brixton home earlier that evening but hasn’t been seen or heard from since. His sudden disappearance has left family and police desperate for answers.
Family Breaks Silence: ‘Justin Wouldn’t Hurt a Fly’
A family spokesperson said, “Our family is devastated and want answers. Justin is a loving person and wouldn’t hurt a fly. This is a plea to the public for information on where Justin is. This could be your son or loved one. Justin comes from a very close family who are desperate for answers.”
Police Hunt Intensifies After Car Found
Detective Chief Inspector Matt Webb of the Met’s Specialist Crime Command urged the public: “We hope that releasing this footage will jog someone’s memory and bring answers for Justin’s family. Please look closely at the footage. Do you recognise this car or the driver? Do you know where the vehicle went after McDonald’s? The family depends on your help.”
Justin was seen leaving McDonald’s in his silver Mercedes E Class, which was parked for around two-and-a-half hours on Waddon New Road. The car was later found at Kingswood Drive, SE19. However, it’s unclear who was driving when it arrived there around 1am on Monday, 16 October. The family insists it wasn’t Justin behind the wheel.
Two Men Charged, Woman Arrested Over Disappearance
- A 29-year-old and a 28-year-old man have been charged in connection with the case.
- A 27-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping on 18 October but has been bailed until January 2024.
Officers have conducted forensic searches at a Croydon address and Justin’s car, plus extensive CCTV and phone checks.
