Alex Wilson

A body has been found today by officers searching for a man missing from home for two days.  South Yorkshire Police said a body was found in the water at Victoria Quays, close to the Hilton Hotel, at around midday.

The body has not yet been identified but is believed to be that of 19-year-old Alex Wilson, who vanished on a night out in Sheffield city centre in the early hours of Sunday.

Alex, from the Norwood area of Sheffield, got into a taxi on Carver Street in the early hours of Sunday and got out of it a short time later on Arundel Gate.  CCTV cameras captured him making his way to the train station before heading in the direction of Ponds Forge.
