Emergency services have found a body believed to be that of missing Gordon man Matthew, three days after he was last seen in Newlyn.
Police said the body was found in the Leonards Hill area, south of Daylesford, on Monday, June 3.
“The deceased is yet to be formally identified but is believed to be missing Gordan man Matthew,” a Victoria Police spokesperson said.
“The death is not being treated as suspicious at this stage.”
