Concern growing for missing Scots wheelchair user who relies on medication

A huge search is underway for a disabled Scots man who went missing in Edinburgh.

William Strathearn was last seen at his home on Abbey Street on Friday, March 19 at around 1pm.

Police say the lack of contact is "out of character" for William, who uses a wheelchair to get around.

Cops have now released a description of the missing man in a bid to trace him.

William is described as white and of very thin build with brown shoulder-length hair and a goatee type beard.

Sergeant Carol Moir of Gayfield Police Station said: “Officers are looking to trace William to ensure that he is safe and well.

"He is without regular medication that he requires and the lack of contact is out of character for him.

“I would urge anyone who has seen William, or who has any information regarding his whereabouts, to contact Gayfield Police Station through 101 quoting reference number 1263 of 19 March.”
