Police searching for a man missing from his home for over a week have found a body in a wooded area.
Scott Lowrie from the Cumbernauld area was reported missing on November 28.
The 50-year-old was last seen leaving an address on Hazel Road and heading towards the woodland area at the rear of Fannyside Road.
He was walking his Staffordshire bull terrier dog at the time, which has since been traced.
Police have confirmed that the body of a man was found in a wooded area near Abronhill around 2.55pm on Thursday, December 10.
Scott's family have been made aware of the discovery.
Formal identification is yet to take place and a post mortem examination will be carried out in due course to establish the exact cause of death.
The death is not being treated as suspicious.
