Police step up search for missing Stockport man

A search is ongoing for 70-year-old Steven Caulfield from Stockport who has been missing since last Tuesday.

The last known sighting of Steven, a former postman, was in the vicinity of the golf course next to Middlewood Way, Marple, at around 4pm on October 1.

CCTV showed Steven wearing a distinctive blue parka style coat with a fur hood, a baseball cap, black jeans, a black v neck jumper and white trainers.

Detectives and specialist resources are conducting enquiries in the local area including thorough searches, but Steven has still not been located.

Officers are supporting Steven’s family.

Detective chief inspector Ian Wrench said: “We have been doing everything we possibly can to locate Steven, who was well known within the community as a postman prior to his retirement.

“We have been conducting thorough searches of the areas he was last seen, as well as areas that he is known to frequent using resources from our Specialist Operations Branch.  We are also liasing with our colleagues in Cheshire and Derbyshire Police to share our appeals and to alert the public in those areas who may possibly have seen him.

“I would like to thank the public for their assistance in sharing our appeals and getting in touch with possible sightings and information; please do continue to share any information with us, no matter how small you think it is. If you believe you have seen or know where Steven is, your assistance could be hugely beneficial.”
