Avon & Somerset police senior investigating officer, DI Jason Chidgey, said: “This has been an incredibly difficult time for Jack O’Sullivan’s family as we approach two months since he was last seen, and we continue to provide them with support and keep them fully updated on the investigation into his disappearance.
“Since he was reported as missing, a dedicated team of officers have carried out extensive land and river searches, trawled CCTV and carried out other enquiries.
“This investigation has sought support from a number of specialist units, including the dog and mounted section, specialist dive teams who used sonar technology as part of their searches, the National Police Air Service and a specialist review team.
“We have also received support from investigations, intelligence, data analysis, neighbourhood policing teams and communications.
“Our officers have reviewed footage from 31 different sources, including private and local authority CCTV, dashcam and doorbell cameras.
“To ensure we’ve been as comprehensive in our approach as possible, we’ve recently carried out a re-review of more than 100 hours of CCTV.”
