CAN you help? Police are trying to trace the family of a Preston man who has had a serious motorcycle accident in Thailand.

Roy Tyler, 65, is a retired worker from the Samuel Whitbread brewery in Samlesbury, near Preston, and moved to Thailand around three or four years ago.

It is thought Roy -- a Manchester United fan -- originally moved to Preston some time ago from Margate, and still owns a flat in the town which he lets through an estate agent.

He is also believed to have been a keen golfer and played with a club in Longridge.

So far his friends in Thailand have had no luck tracing members of his family, but it is thought he has an ex-wife or possibly a daughter, called Amanda. He is also believed to have a son called Paul.
