Margaret McCabe says she has not seen her son Stephen McCabe in 12 days – and the last time she saw him, he was getting into a white car on Belfast’s Mona Bypass
A distraught mum is urging people come forward with information after her missing son was last spotted getting into a car 12 days ago.
Margaret McCabe hasn’t seen her son Stephen since he was seen entering a white car on Belfast’s Mona Bypass on January 30. She is now pleading for any information that might lead to finding her missing son. She said police cannot officially list him as missing because he is classed as a “wanted person”, due to missing a bail appointment while he was in hospital. Stephen is said to have substance abuse issues, and his mum says she is worried for his safety.
Speaking to Belfast Live, Margaret said: “The last time that I saw Stephen he was getting into a white car with a woman at the top of the Mona Bypass near our home and I have not had any contact with him since. He has been dealing with substance abuse issues and told me that he had got into debt, so I am terrified for his safety as I have not been able to speak with him for 12 days.”
“He had been hanging around the city centre in the weeks prior to this, but I don’t know if anyone has seen him in the area since. I have been asking police to issue a missing person appeal but they have said they can’t due to Stephen being classed as wanted, but I don’t care how they put an appeal out there, I just want help in finding out that my son is safe. Just a phonecall to know that he is alive is all that I need and if anyone has any information about where he might be can they please encourage the police to go there.”
