Rotorua police are seeking sightings of a man and his nephew who have been missing for five days.

Detective Sergeant George Staunton, Rotorua CIB, said Raymond Fleet, 51, and James Fleet, 25, were last seen by their families between 1pm and 6pm on Monday.

Police believe they are together and could be in the Rotorua or Auckland areas.

The pair's behaviour was out of character and their disappearance was at odds with their normal activities and work commitments, Mr Staunton said.

Raymond Joseph Fleet is Caucasian, of thin to medium build and is 175cm tall (5'7").

He usually works driving trucks. It's not known what clothes he might be wearing.

James David Fleet is Caucasian, of medium build, with thick wavy dark brown shoulder length hair.

He was last seen wearing a dark coloured hoodie and grey trackpants.

If anyone knows of the men's whereabouts, police would appreciate information.

Any sightings and or information can be directed to the Rotorua Police through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
