Police have today been notified of several possible sightings of Travis Langford, who has been missing since 17 January.
Travis travelled from Wellington to the Waikato region, where his car was located burnt out at a farm on Tolley Road in Ngaroma on 18 January.
The sightings reported today were of a man matching Travis' description, wearing a poncho, and were at the following locations: on State Highway 30, approximately 20-25 kilometres south of Te Kuiti; the Kopaki rail overbridge; near Powell Road; and near Mangaokewa Road, where he appeared to be hitchhiking. The attached images show the locations of these sightings.
Based on these sightings, Police believe the man was heading north, and may have been picked up by a passing motorist.
We want to hear from anyone who was travelling on State Highway 30 between 9.30am and 12pm, who may have seen this man; anyone who picked up a hitchhiker matching the description of this man; or anyone that has dashcam footage from the area that may be relevant.
