Cops searching for missing Cumbernauld man one week since dog found alone near woods

Cops are continuing their search for a missing Scots man a week after his dog was found alone.

Scott Lowrie was reported missing from his home in Cumbernauld, Lanarkshire on Saturday, November 28.

The 50-year-old has not been seen since leaving a shop on Larch Road, Abronhill, at around 3pm on this day.

He had his pet Staffordshire bull terrier with him.

The dog was found without its harness at the entry to woodland next to Fannyside Road on the afternoon of Monday, November 30.

Scott is described as a white man, around 5ft 10in tall with receding short grey hair. At the time he was last seen, Scott was wearing a green parka jacket and blue jeans.

Inspector Neil MacLeod, of Cumbernauld Community Policing, said: “It has now been over a week since Scott was reported missing and we are increasingly worried for his welfare.

"We know he had said he intended to take his dog to the woods and that his dog was found within the wooded area next to Fannyside Road two days later.

"Our enquiries are focused in that area in terms of ground search, but we are still very keen to hear from all of Scott's associates and anybody who may have seen anyone matching Scott's description or his Staffordshire bull terrier between Saturday, 28 November and Monday, 30 November.

“Any information could prove vital, so please contact police.”

Anyone with information should call 101, quoting incident number 2648 of 30 November.
