A third week of activity will take place at Troon Close in Middlesbrough next week as search teams continue to work on an area of waste ground connected to a 20-year-old murder case.

 

Police and a specialist search team started work at a former allotment site near to Troon Close on Monday 18th June as part of the investigation into the disappearance of Donna Keogh from Middlesbrough in 1998 when she was just 17 years old. Donna has never been found and her disappearance is being treated as a murder investigation.

​

Force spokesman Will Green said: “Due to the size and challenging nature of the site we will be continuing the excavation into next week and potentially for a number of weeks after that. We continue to update Donna’s family and remain grateful to local residents for their understanding and support.”
