Search for missing Peel man scaled back

Arran Kaighin who is 43 has been missing since Thursday afternoon. 

He had made infrequent contact with his family members from his mobile phone up to and including Saturday afternoon by text message.  

It’s believed he is wearing a dark green and black Regatta outdoor coat, dark green combat trousers and old walking boots. 

Extensive searches have been carried out since Mr Kaighin was reported missing but police say these searches have now been scaled back, and in some locations suspended, until new information to his whereabouts is gained. 

They say he is still being treated as a missing person and it’s hoped he returns safe and well.
