Four men charged with murder after Yeovil man's disappearance
37-year-old Michael Wheeler was last seen a month ago
Four men have been charged with murder by police investigating the disappearance of a man from Yeovil.
37-year-old Michael Wheeler hasn’t been seen or heard from since Saturday 24th August.
A number of police searches and other enquiries led officers to fear that he may have come to serious harm, leading to a public appeal to trace him. He has not yet been found.
David Garland, 39, and Jack Rance, 28, both of no fixed abode, are charged with murder along with Mark Roberts, 38, and Reuben Clare, 18, both of Yeovil.
They appeared at Yeovil Magistrates’ Court today (25/9) and were all remanded in custody pending a further hearing at Bristol Crown Court on Friday (27/9).
Avon and Somerset Police say specialist officers are supporting Michael's family.
​Another man who was arrested last week has been re-arrested today, while a man arrested on Monday is currently on police bail.
A woman who was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender is also on police bail, and the investigation continues.
Officers are continuing to appeal for information.
