Update 21/05: Matthew has been found safe.

Police are growing worried about an economics student who has not been seen since yesterday.

Matthew Campsie, a 21 year-old student from Scotland, was last seen leaving Fitzwilliam College onto Storey’s Way yesterday at 7.46am for an exam he did not attend.

DC Clare Havis, from the Missing Person Investigation Unit (MPIU), said: "Police and Matthew's family are growing increasingly concerned for Matthew's welfare and would urge anyone who has seen him, or may know where he is, to contact us immediately."

Matthew is a third-year undergraduate student at Fitzwilliam College. An email sent by the Senior Tutor, Dr Paul Chirico, encouraged students to "support each other over this", and not to "hesitate to seek help from your Tutor, the College Nurse, Counsellor or Chaplain if you need extra support, or if you have any specific concerns arising from this situation."

Anyone with information about Matthew's whereabouts should contact police on 101.
