POLICE have notified the family of a missing man that a body has been found during their search.
Gwent Police said the body of a man was discovered near Monmouth at around 10.20am today, Thursday.
"Formal identification has yet to take place, but we've notified the family of Stewart McGinn," a spokesperson for the force said.
Mr McGinn was last seen near his home address in Monmouth on Tuesday at around 1pm, and the 30-year-old's disappearance prompted police to launch a missing persons appeal amid concerns for his welfare.
The police spokesperson added that that force was "not treating the death as suspicious currently".
They said a report on the discovery had been prepared for the coroner.
