Sussex Police are working with London Fire Brigade to search Pells Pool
and Pellbrook Cut in Lewes as the quest to locate missing firefighter
Anthony Knott continues.
Specialist teams from the emergency services will remain in the area in a bid to find the 33-year-old.

Anthony, from Orpington in Kent, has been missing since Friday (20
December), and officers – and his family and friends – are growing
increasingly concerned.
Detective Chief Inspector Alasdair Henry said: “It has now been a number
of days since Anthony was reported missing and we are growing
increasingly concerned for his welfare.
“Our specialist teams have carried out extensive searches with support
from volunteers and other emergency services. We have extended these
searches to include the Pells Pool and the surrounding area.
“We are extremely grateful for everyone’s support and we continue to
appeal to anyone with any information about Anthony’s disappearance to
please come forward.
“Extensive enquiries have also been made in the Lewes area with local
businesses, including bus, rail and taxi services. CCTV footage has also
been reviewed as part of efforts to find Anthony.
“There is no information available to us at this stage to suggest
Anthony left the Lewes area and our searches will continue to focus in
this location.
“This remains a very difficult time for Anthony’s family and friends,
and we are seeking the information and answers they so desperately
need.”
Anthony, from Orpington, Kent, was visiting the Lamb pub in Fisher
Street when he became separated from his group. He was last seen outside
the pub just before 7.30pm on Friday 20 December.
Anthony is described as white, approximately 6′, of medium build and
with medium-brown short gelled hair. He was last seen wearing a black
long-sleeve top, a dark denim suit-style jacket, dark denim jeans and
black shoes.
Anyone who may have seen Anthony or who has other relevant information is asked to contact Sussex Police online or by phoning 101, quoting Operation Barnstaple. In an emergency, please dial 999.
