New pic of Scots pensioner who went missing on walk three months ago as cops comb CCTV

The family of a missing 74-year-old man from St Andrews have issued a new photo as part of a fresh public appeal nearly three months on from his disappearance.

Paul Johnson left an address in the Fife town’s Hay Fleming Avenue around 10pm on Wednesday, September 15 and was seen about 45 minutes later in Hepburn Gardens at the junction with Lawhead Road.

He has not been seen since and his heartbroken family has previously made emotional appeals for information following his disappearance which has been described as “completely out of character.”

On Friday, community sergeant Matt Spencer said: “Paul has not been seen since and has not been in touch with his family who are understandably very concerned, as are officers.

“We have carried out extensive searches to try to find Paul, including door to door enquiries and obtaining CCTV. We are asking anyone who may know where Paul is to get in touch. Or if Paul hears about this appeal then please call us or your family.”

Mr Johnson is described as being around 5ft 9in tall and of slim build with grey hair.

He was last known to be wearing a blue rain jacket and light coloured walking trousers.

Mr Johnson’s heartbroken granddaughter, Caitlin, previously appealed to anyone who might come across a blue jacket, two hearing aids, a watch and a head torch.

Anyone who can help should contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 0266 of Thursday, 16 September, 2021.
