Stephen Wardrop missing: Fresh appeal for man last seen working at Livingston Sainsbury's in May

A fresh appeal has been issued in the search for a Livingston man who was reported missing three months ago.

Stephen Wardrop was last seen working at the Sainsbury's store at Livingston's Almondvale Retail Park around 1pm on Sunday 19 May. He was then reported missing by his family five days later, on Friday 24 May.

Police say there may have then been a sighting of him at Bathgate Gala Day on Saturday 1 June, with search activity in the area as a result.

Stephen, who has since turned 48, had a three-figure sum of cash in his possession at the time of going missing.

He is described as being white with short fair hair, around 5ft 7ins tall and of medium build. He was last seen wearing dark trousers, dark shoes, a khaki waist-length jacket and a blue baseball cap.

Inspector Myles Marshall of Livingston Police Station said: "For those who may have seen Stephen since this time, or who have relevant information which could help to lead us to his current whereabouts, please come forward. 

"Our search for Stephen will continue and we are determined to find answers on his whereabouts. If you know something, tell us now."

Anyone with information can contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1828 of 24 May.
