COPS have tragically discovered a body in the search for a missing man.
Craig Foy, 40, was last seen near Bury Old Road in Prestwich, Manchester, on Saturday July 26.
CCTV appeared to show Craig climbing into the park on the night he vanished.
Now, a body has sadly been found by cops and is believed to be Craig.
The force said formal identification has not yet taken place but his family had been informed.
The frantic search for Craig spanned weeks and involved teams of officers scouring Heaton Park in Prestwich after CCTV footage emerged.
Three people were arrested on suspicion of murder as part of the investigation.
Two have been told they will face no further action and one has been released on bail, Greater Manchester Police said.
Detective Chief Inspector Jill Billington, from GMP’s Serious Crime Division, said: “The investigation remains ongoing to establish the circumstances leading up to Craig’s death, and to ensure that we can get the answers that his family deserve.
“We appreciate the support of the public in sharing our appeals to locate Craig and ask for his family to be given privacy, space and time to process their loss.”
Cops urged anyone with information which could help the investigation to come forward immediately.
Police can be contacted on 101 quoting log number 917-28/7/25 or via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
GMP added: “Any information can also be uploaded to our bespoke Major Incident Public Portal – that includes photos and videos.
