Good news in for 2018… 19-year-old former Dundonian, Trey Shannon, has been found in Durban. His disappearance sparked a major search in Durban after the Courier was alerted by local resident, Grant Dekker, who previously coached Trey BMX riding.
Courier readers in the Dundee area and in Durban helped spread the news of the disappearance of the former Pro Nobis School pupil.
He went missing near Stellawood Park, Durban, and when he did not come home or answer his phone, his frantic mum, Lisa, alerted Grant Dekker and the authorities in Durban,
He was found this afternoon by Louis van Rynveld from Blue Security who spotted him in the Glenmore area this afternoon.
He has been reunited with his mother, Lisa.
Passing on the good news from the family, Grant told the Courier: Heather Rorick from Bulwer Safety and Urban Regeneration Forum said:
“A big thank you to Blue Security, Andreas, Louis and Noel, to Hayley Wagner, who drove Lisa and I all over looking for Trey. Andreas and myself spent all night on this case and today from information sent out, Trey was found by Louis from Blue Security. Trey is ok, he is a bit disoriented, hungry and tired. A big thank you for the massive team work and networking to spread Trey’s photo across Durban. Thanks to everyone for the prayers, good wishes and concern.”
