Police searching for April Jones have issued a picture of the 46-year-old man they have arrested on suspicion of her abduction.

Detective Superintendent Reg Bevan has appealed for witnesses who may have seen Mr. Bridger between Monday evening when April disappeared and yesterday afternoon when he was arrested.

He says they need to know about all sightings of Mark Bridger and his Land Rover Discovery 4×4 vehicle seized shortly after his arrest.

The 5-year-old was last seen getting into a van in Machynlleth on Monday evening.

Her parents released a statement yesterday begging for information that will bring her home.

Police say they are conscious of the safety of volunteers helping in the search for April.

April’s parents Coral and Paul have pleaded for the safe return of their daughter and her family says their lives have been ‘shattered’.

Coral has renewed an appeal for help in tracing her daughter.

She said there must be somebody who can help them find their daughter.
