Amazon packer said he was going to work before vanishing without a trace

The family of a missing Amazon worker have pleaded with him to get in touch, saying: "Please come home, we miss you'.

Hirsto Angelov, 29, has not been seen since about 8pm on Tuesday, and his worried dad has flown to the UK to help find him.

The Bulgarian-born Amazon packer walked out of the home he shares with his cousin, Vasil Angelov, in Edgeley, Stockport, without saying where he was going.

His distraught father, Milen, has flown into Manchester from his home in Varna to try to help find his son.

Vasil told the Manchester Evening News that he was becoming increasingly worried for him.

Vasil said Hristo took his backpack as if he was going to work and a blanket. But he said he didn't take the security pass he needs to get into the Amazon hub.

He added: "Our message to him is: 'We are all desperately worried about you.

"Please come home, we miss you."

Vasil said Hristo's worried mother, Rositsa, is also due to fly into Manchester to help with the search for her son.

The cousins have been living at Edgeley since coming to the UK five years ago.

Vasil added: "We like living in the UK very much. There are many opportunities here."
