A body has been found as police continued their search for a missing Oldham man.

57-year old Mark Graham was last seen at around 5am on Friday (28th June) on Huddersfield Road in Oldham but hadn’t been heard from since then.

A search was launched in a bid to try and find Mark, with police believing he travelled to Booth Wood Reservoir in Ripponden, West Yorkshire.

Following a search of the area by officers, including the support of West Yorkshire Police, officers have confirmed they have found a body.

Formal identification of the body is still to take place with police also not releasing where the body was found.
