£50k to bring my boy home

Mum’s plea over missing RAF gunner

- Lauren Crooks

The mum of missing RAF gunner Corrie McKeague has offered a new £50,000 reward for informatio­n that could help find him.

Nicola Urquhart made a desperate plea on the Find Corrie Facebook page, telling followers “someone knows” what has happened to him. And she insisted new lines of inquiry were key in the case of Corrie, 23, who has been missing since September. The offer has been backed by Corrie’s dad Martin despite a feud in the family since the disappeara­nce. The reward is being offered with help from businessma­n Col in Davey after a 20-week search for Corrie’s remains at a C ambr idgeshi re landfill site was halted last month. Nicola, a police officer, wrote: “From the very first time I spoke publicly about Corrie disappeari­ng I have said, ‘Someone knows’.

“I still truly believe that. It is never ever to late to do the right thing, For your own soul and conscience please come forward, help us to find Corrie, I need my boy home.”

Corrie, from Dunfermlin­e, vanished after a night out with friends in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, on September 24. It later emerged his mobile phone had been tracked moving 12 miles to Barton Mills, the site of a rubbish tip.

A bin lorry bound for the site, which passed through the area Corrie was last seen, weighed more than 100kg – leading to fears it may held his body.

Corrie’s dad Martin McKeague, 48, said: “I heard that there’s another reward being of fered and I’m overjoyed to see it is the police incident number that people are being asked to contact.”
