Police have issued a renewed appeal in a bid to trace a missing teenager last seen in Edinburgh more than a week ago.
Ashawn Studholme, who has links to London, was seen in the Niddrie and The Jewel areas of the city last Monday (May 24).
Officers say the 16-yer-old is likely to have been using public transport, and they want anyone who thinks they've seen him to come forward.
He is described as a black, Scottish male, around 5ft 7ins tall, of slum build and with short dark hair. When reported missing he was wearing a black skip cap, a black jacket, black tracksuit bottoms and black trainers.
Constable Lee Aitchison from Craigmillar Police Station said: “Ashawn has been missing for more than a week now and it is vital that we trace him and confirm he is safe and well.
