Friends of a missing teenager from Anglesey say they want his graffiti tags to be preserved.

Frantisek "Frankie" Morris, 18, was last seen near the Vaynol Arms in Gwynedd on 2 May, a day after going to a rave at a disused quarry.

His friends say leaving his "crazy" tags at different locations in Bangor and Anglesey would provide "a little piece of Frankie" for his loved ones.

Bangor council said it would be up the owners of the daubed buildings.

But mayor Owen Hurcum added the council was open to discussing the matter.

"The graffiti Frankie has scattered all around Bangor should be kept - it would be really good if the council left it untouched," said Alex Hugo Hughes.

"It was part of Frankie's creativity, and he did it regardless of the consequences.

"It would be a good gesture for his family and friends to preserve it in his memory, especially the one on the old Post Office building in Bangor."
