Renewed Appeal For Information On 1999 Disappearance
Police have renewed an appeal for information on the disappearance of Bruce Gapper almost 16 years ago.
Mr Gapper, from Dewsbury, was reported missing on 16 March, 1999. He was 40-years-old at the time of his disappearance.
Police said they believe Mr Gapper was murdered.
Crimestoppers have offered a reward of £5,000 for information leading to a conviction.
It is understood that Mr Gapper was last seen at his home on 14 March. Police believe that he left his home "in a hurry", having left behind a half-eaten sandwich and full drink.
A bank card belonging to Mr Gapper was used for several days after his disappearance, but there have been reported sightings of the West Yorkshire man since the week he went missing.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact police.
