\n<\/span><\/p>\nPolice are concerned about a BBC Bristol and Somerset radio presenter who has gone missing. <\/p>\n
Peter Rowell, 52, was last seen on Tuesday morning at 0830 BST when he set off for work from his home in Wickwar in South Gloucestershire. <\/p>\n
Police said he parked his car at Morrison’s supermarket in Yate but are concerned as it has not been possible to contact him. <\/p>\n
He is believed to be depressed after the death of a close relative. <\/p>\n
A BBC spokesman said: “Our main concern is for Peter’s welfare and we’ll provide all the support we can for his family.” <\/p>\n
Mr Rowell, originally from Sunderland, presents the Afternoon Show on BBC Radio Bristol and BBC Somerset – a mixture of music and celebrity interviews.<\/p>\n
He has worked at BBC Bristol since last May and is a well-known face in the West County making many public appearances.<\/p>\n
Mr Rowell has previously been a news presenter for ITV West and worked as a DJ on commercial radio station GWR in the 1980s – now part of the Heart group. <\/p>\n
He is described as a white man with white or silver coloured hair. He is 5ft 10ins (1.77m) tall and of stocky build. <\/p>\n
He is possibly wearing brown coloured jeans and a white shirt. <\/p>\n
Avon and Somerset police have asked Mr Rowell, or anyone who may have information, to contact them. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
