Case 3: Missing Person - Col Heath

Police are continuing to investigate the disappearance of 46 year old Col Heath. Col was reported missing on March 19, 2022 and was last seen in Te Kuiti.

Col’s father had seen them and Col was in good spirits, but two days later they simply vanished without explanation. Bank accounts haven’t been touched since mid-March, and other efforts, including reviewing telecommunications, have been unsuccessful.

Col’s family hold out hope that they may be in the bush freedom camping or at a commune so they implore anyone in the Te Kuiti area going into the bush to keep an eye out for Col or signs that Col may have been there.

Police are keen for any information regardless of how small you may think it is as it may be relevant to their investigation and assist in locating Col. Please reach out if you have any information by connecting with a case officer here.
