THE father of a missing student has urged people to focus on a specific part of Cork city after CCTV images tracked his son’s movements away from the River Lee.

Eugene Mulrooney was speaking yesterday as gardaí co-ordinated almost 300 volunteers searching for UCC student Caolan Mulrooney, 18, who has been missing since the early hours of Friday morning.

Caolan, from Rochestown, Cork, was seen at 1.07am walking over South Gate Bridge and turning right up French’s Quay.
