Jack O'Sullivan parents say every day without missing son is like 'hell'

The parents of missing student Jack O'Sullivan say they are living in "hell on earth" without him.

Catherine and Alan O'Sullivan's 23-year-old son has not been seen or heard from by his family since he went to a house party in Bristol on 2 March.

Mrs O'Sullivan said: "I want the world to try and give me an answer to where Jack is. It's horrific."

The family is urging anyone in the Hotwells area on that date to come forward with information.
