Police searching canal for missing Drumchapel man James Coyle

The Forth and Clyde canal is being searched by police looking for a man missing from home for over a week.

James Coyle was last seen around 7pm on November 29 on Sollas Place.

The 34-year-old hasn't been in touch with his family, who are becoming increasingly worried, since.

Officers and specialist units are carrying out canal and ground searches in the Drumchapel and Knightswood areas.

James is described as 6ft 1in tall, slim with brown hair and a brown beard. He is believed to have been wearing grey jogging bottoms, a black top and black socks. He may be wearing navy Adidas trainers.

Chief Inspector Natalie Carr said: "James was last seen over a week ago and his family are extremely worried because it is very unusual for them not to hear from him for so long.

“A number of searches are being carried out in the surrounding area where James lives and I would also appeal to people living locally to check their own gardens and sheds or outbuildings, in case he has sought shelter within.

“Anyone with information regarding James’s whereabouts should contact Police Scotland on 101 quoting incident number 0055 of 2 December 2020.”
