A Sydney police officer has handed himself in to police over the suspicious disappearance of Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. Baird is an AFL goal umpire ands former entertainment reporter, while Davies is a flight attendant for QANTAS.

It is understood that police began searching for Constable Beau Lamarre after learning that he was previously in a relationship with one of the two men. Late on Friday night they executed a search warrant at a property in Waite Avenue Balmain and seized several items.

At 11.30am (Sydney time) on Friday morning Lamarre presented at Bondi Police Station. He is being transferred to Waverly Station to assist with inquiries.

Police became concerned about the welfare of the couple after a worker discovered items belonging to them in a skip bin in Cronulla on Friday morning. The items included credit cards, clothing, a mobile phone and an expensive watch, and there was also blood at the scene.

When police searched the homes of the two men, they found signs of a disturbance and a significant amount of blood at Baird’s Paddington terrace, it was quickly established as a crime scene.  Neither Baird nor his partner Davies has been seen since Monday.

Constable Lamarre has not been accused of any crime, and police are eager to speak to anyone who previously dated either of the two men.

Prior to joining the police a few years ago Lamarre had a high profile on social media where he was often photographed with celebrities including Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian and Harry Styles.

Lamarre first came to prominence in 2014 when as a nineteen-year-old he threw a letter on stage at a Lady Gaga concert which the singer read out to the audience. The letter was a coming out message to his family.

In the following years he filled his social media pages with snaps of him with many different stars, and often appearing to travel first class and in private jets to locations around the globe. In 2018 he left behind his career as a social media influencer and became a police officer.

Friends of the missing couple have shared that they only began dating in recent months, and missing important appointments was out of character for both of them.

Davies failed to report to his role as a QANTAS flight attendant, and Baird had been booked to officiate a practice match between the Sydney Swans and the GWS Giants. Baird previously worked at Network Ten where he appeared on the shows Totally Wild and Studio 10.

Luke Davies is described as being of Caucasian appearance, 170cm-175cm tall with a medium build, brown hair and brown eyes. It’s not known what he was wearing at the time of his disappearance.

Jesse Baird is described as being of Caucasian appearance, 180cm to 185cm tall with a muscular build, brown hair and brown eyes. It’s not known what he was wearing at the time he went missing.

Police are appealing for anyone with information about Luke or Jesse’s whereabouts – or who may have information relevant to the investigation – to contact Waverley Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
