Frank missing for 30 years

This week marked the 30th anniversary of Frank McCarthy's disappearance in Cork.

Frank was last seen by his mother on 12 February 1993, at approximately 6.30pm, leaving his home in Mayfield. He headed for a local short cut through a nearby field which led to Mayfield Business Park, walking in the direction of Mayfield Shopping Centre.

When last seen, Frank was wearing navy tracksuit pants, green sweater and a wine-coloured three-quarter length jacket and white runners. He is described as being 5' 10'' in height with dark brown hair and brown eyes. He was 23 years of age at the time.

Frank’s family and An Garda Síochána are seeking to speak with any person with any information on Frank’s whereabouts or who may have information relating to his movements on the night he went missing.

A spokesperson for An Garda Siochána said: “With the passage of time, there may now be people in a position to come forward to gardaí. Any new information, not matter how insignificant it may seem, will be welcome by the investigation team and Frank’s family. This information will be treated in the strictest confidence.”

Gardaí can be contacted at Mayfield Garda Station on 021-4558510, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800-666111 or make contact with any garda station.
