A search has been launched after the 'completely out of character' disappearance of teenager from his Scots home.

The family of Gabriel Ursu are said to be 'very worried' after the 17-year-old vanished from his home in Coupar Angus, Perth and Kinross on Saturday.

He was last seen in the Burnside, Kettins, area around 3pm on Saturday and family have now reported the Romanian teen as missing.

Police are keen to trace him and have issued a description of Gabriel who is also said to have links to Manchester and Yeovil in England.

He is described as around 5 ft 5 ins tall, slim build with short brown hair and wears glasses.

He was last seen wearing a grey jacket and speaks and understands Romanian, English and Spanish.

Inspector Emma Bowman said: "This is completely out of character for Gabriel and his family are understandably very worried.

"We are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen him to contact us so we can ensure he is safe and well.

"We are also appealing directly to Gabriel to get in touch with police or family."

Anyone with information on Gabriel's whereabouts is asked to contact police on 101, quoting reference number 3238 of 10 January.
