Human remains have been located in the search for a young man who has not been seen in a month.
Joshua Bishop, 23, was last seen by his housemate on Lalor Cres in Sunbury, northwest of Melbourne, at about 9.30pm on May 27.
He was then reported missing by his mother two days later.
There have been extensive searches at a park in Broadmeadows as his phone was tracked there on the same day he was last seen, but nothing was located.
However on Saturday, police discovered human remains following the execution of a warrant at a home in Westmeadows.
A 27-year-old man was arrested and is expected to be interviewed about the remains, which are yet to be formally identified.
Police said the investigation is ongoing.
Bishop's family had been using social media to spread the word about his disappearance, with a dedicated TikTok and Facebook page gaining traction.
His parents previously made an emotional public plea for his return, with his father Travis saying they just wanted him home safe.
'We want him to know we love him, we're here for him,' he said.
'I don't know how people go through this.'
