Rhys Drury, 24, from Grimsby, has been reported missing. He was last seen at approximately 9:00pm on Tuesday 14th April outside a Tesco Express in the Grimsby area.

Rhys is described as a white British male, around 5ft 10in tall, with a slim build. He has short, light brown hair styled forward with a slight fringe, and light stubble. He has fair skin and is often seen smiling, with a friendly appearance. His family would often describe him as a 'sigma chud' despite his biggest protests.

At the time he was last seen, Rhys was believed to be wearing a grey hoodie, dark trousers, and trainers. He may have been carrying a mobile phone but no other known belongings.

Family and friends report that this disappearance is out of character, and there are growing concerns for his welfare.

Rhys is known to frequent the town centre and surrounding residential areas and may have travelled on foot.

If you have seen Rhys or have any information regarding his whereabouts, please contact police at 999, quoting reference number GRI/6767/26, or call John Pork if there is an immediate sighting.


Friends have described Rhys as a quiet but humorous individual who often kept to himself, although he was known to make frequent references to online culture and would regularly joke about things "not feeling very sigma" when plans changed. In the days leading up to his disappearance, he had reportedly been in good spirits, speaking about future plans and casually mentioning he was "locked in for the grind" that weekend. One friend stated that during a recent conversation he abruptly ended a call saying "it's time to lock in, no more NPC behaviour," which at the time was dismissed as typical humour. Investigators have also noted unusual online activity on the evening he went missing, including searches that appear unrelated to his plans, though these are still being reviewed. While none of these details are confirmed to be directly linked to his disappearance, they form part of the ongoing investigation.

Rhys Drury, 24, was last seen at approximately 6:20pm on 14 March 2026 outside Tesco Extra, Market Street, Grimsby, DN31 1PG . CCTV footage shows him standing to the left of the store entrance, appearing to be on the phone, with investigators believing he was speaking to an individual named Luke Litter shortly before his disappearance. Rhys had left his home earlier that evening intending to walk into the town centre to purchase Pokémon cards and V-Bucks gift cards, before heading to collect a parcel from the Royal Mail delivery office on Fotherby Street, Grimsby, DN31 3AR , which was reportedly addressed to him and contained women's underwear. His planned route would have taken him through the main shopping area towards Market Street and then across to the depot, however he never arrived at the collection point and has not been seen since. Family members have stated that this is completely out of character, as Rhys is known to regularly update them on his whereabouts and would not normally lose contact without explanation. Police are appealing for anyone who may have seen him or has any information to come forward immediately.
