Man last seen in Frankston may be foul play victim THE search continues for a man who police believe may have been a victim of “foul play” after disappearing last year. Jacob Horton was last seen leaving a house on Drum Close, Frankston, on 27 June last year. He left in the morning without his phone or car. A police statement released last week read that his disappearance was “now being treated as suspicious.” “Investigators are of the belief that
Jacob has met with foul play,” the statement read. The 28-year-old resided in Safety Beach, and was known to frequent Rosebud and Frankston. Police say “on the morning Jacob vanished, he was attempting to source transport to travel back towards the Rosebud area.” Last week detectives released an image of Mr Horton which was taken on the morning of his disappearance. Police describe him as about 170cm
tall with a thin build, red hair, and brown eyes. Police are appealing for public information to help locate Mr Horton. They want to speak to anyone with information about Mr Horton’s movements on the morning of his disappearance, or anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts. Contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
